Glutinous Rice Lotus Root

Glutinous Rice Lotus Root

　　Ingredients: 300g lotus root, 100g glutinous rice. Garnish: 50g sugar, a little osmanthus sugar.

Method: 1. Peel, wash, and dry the lotus root. Cut off one end of the lotus root section. Wash the glutinous rice and soak in water for about 4 hours until fully soaked. 2. Mix the glutinous rice with sugar, then stuff it into the lotus root holes one by one. Place the cut-off lotus root end back in position and secure it with toothpicks to prevent the rice from leaking out. 3. Place the stuffed lotus root sections in a steamer and steam over high heat for about 1 hour. Remove and let cool, then remove the toothpicks and the lotus root end. Slice into 0.5 cm thick rounds, arrange on a plate, and drizzle with osmanthus sugar. Glutinous Rice Lotus Root is rich in nutrients, sweet in taste, and an all-age-friendly dessert.
