Wuhan seems to have a variety of flowers throughout the year. Spring is naturally the most abundant. Peach blossoms, pear blossoms, cherry blossoms, peonies, rhododendrons, rape blossoms, sweet-scented osmanthus in autumn, plum blossoms in winter, and lotus in summer. There are various flower festivals, the most famous one is the cherry blossom festival, the most deserted, I think it should be the lotus festival, maybe because the weather is too hot, we have been there twice, it was a few years ago By the way, except for some photography enthusiasts, there are really few tourists.
There are many lakes in Wuhan, and there are many lotus flowers. I saw lotus leaves for sale a few days ago, so I bought one back. Think about it, let’s make lotus leaf rice and add a touch of freshness to the meat pilaf.
The neighbor recently sent us some scallops, and today they also added some to the meal. "

Tips:
Ingredients: 1 lotus leaf chicken wings 460 g (10 pieces) 200 g rice. Side dishes: 130 g onion, 56 g green peppers (1 piece), 30 g dried scallops, 125 g mushrooms (8 pieces), 115 g carrots (1 small piece), 180 g potatoes (1) Fresh lotus seed edamame marinade: cooking wine light soy sauce and dark soy sauce, a small amount of sesame oil, pepper powder, salt seasoning: 3 cloves of garlic, 1 tablespoon of soybean paste, 1 tablespoon of bean paste (chopped) light soy sauce, salt, pepper powder, sugar decoration: shallot
1. The amount of side dishes I gave is quite a lot when cooking, but it feels good after the rice is steamed. You can reduce the amount of side dishes by half or one third, or you can make it according to your own preferences. Change the side dishes.
2. When soaking scallops, you can put a small amount of cooking wine in order to get rid of the fishy. Of course, if you are not used to the taste of scallops, you can leave it alone.
3. There are very few soy sauces when marinating chicken wings, just to give the chicken wings a little color.
4. It does not take a long time to stir-fry the side dishes, almost just stir the dishes and seasonings thoroughly, so that there is little juice.
