Sweet-scented osmanthus sugar lotus root

step

Soak 1 and 75g glutinous rice in advance 1 hour.

2. Wash and peel the lotus root, cut about 2 cm from the front and rear ends of the lotus root, and cover it for later use.

3. Stuff the soaked glutinous rice into the lotus root hole (glutinous rice can be stuffed with chopsticks or bamboo sticks).

4. Cut the lotus root cover and backfill the glutinous rice, and fix it with several toothpicks.

5. Put the sealed lotus root into the pot, pour in the clear water without lotus root, add 2 spoonfuls of brown sugar, cover it, bring it to a boil with high fire, and turn it to low heat 1 hour.

6. Open the lid and add 4 tablespoons of rock sugar, continue to cook for 1-2 hours, and turn off the fire 1 hour. Note: If you use a pressure cooker, you will save more time. Put lotus root and glutinous rice together in a pot and cook for 20 minutes. After the pressure is released, open the lid and cook until the juice is collected. If you want to make the sugar lotus root redder, you can turn off the fire and cool it, and then put it in the refrigerator for one night.

7. Take out the slices and plate them.

8, drenched with juice, dotted with dried osmanthus, sweet-scented osmanthus sugar lotus root is completed.
