Peel lotus root, and slice 1/4" thick. You will be able to get 8-12 slices.
Chop green onions.
Put green onions, chicken, ginger, salt, Soy Sauce, and potato starch in a bowl, and mix very well.
Sprinkle potato starch (not in the ingredient list) over one side of each lotus root slice.
Divide the meat mixture into 4-6 parts, depending on how many lotus root slices you have. Put one part of the meat on a starch side of lotus root. Then cover with another lotus root slice so the starch side touches the meat. Trim the sides of the meat with a knife so the meat is neatly inside the sandwiches.
Heat oil at medium heat in a frying pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes. Turn over, turn down the heat, cover, and cook another 3-4 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the ingredients for the sauce until sugar dissolves.
Add the sauce mixture to the pan. Cook for a few minutes coating the sauce on both sides.
