Ingredients
- 200 grams lotus stem, cut into 1/2 in. rounds
- 1 tablespoon corn flour
- 1 tablespoon rice flour
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 1/2 tablespoons vinegar
- 3 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, for sprinkling over the top
- Oil, for deep-frying
Method
- Place the lotus stem in a bowl and sprinkle over corn flour and rice flour. Toss gently until evenly coated, and deep fry in oil until lightly browned. Transfer onto paper towels to drain off the excess oil.
- In a small wok over low heat, combine the soy sauce, ketchup, vinegar, chilli powder, and honey and stir gently. Taste and adjust the seasoning at this point (you may not need to add salt since the soy is already salty). Once the sauce is heated through and thickened slightly, about 3 - 4 minutes, add the fried lotus stem and toss to coat all the pieces evenly. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve immediately.
