Osmanthus Lotus Rice
1.
Wash the glutinous rice and soak in water for more than two hours. If the time is sufficient, soak the glutinous rice overnight. Drain the soaked glutinous rice and set aside; brush the lotus root with mud, peel and wash.
2.
Cut the lotus root from the thick end about 5cm, fill the glutinous rice into each hole with chopsticks, knock the lotus root while stuffing it.
3.
After filling with rice, put the cut off lid back in place and fix it with a toothpick
4.
Put the lotus root in the pressure cooker, add the water that has not passed the lotus root body, add rock sugar and a few red dates; after the pressure cooker is aired, 25 minutes, let it cool and slice it; pour in osmanthus sauce or honey when eating.
Tips:
1. Choose lotus roots. It is advisable to choose lotus roots that are thick and stubby, with fresh and tender surface, complete, and not rotten or hurt. The lotus root body is too long to enter the pot;
2. During the cooking process, brown sugar can be added to make the finished product fuller in color and taste better. Because it is out of stock at home, I only added rock candy to this one. Please adjust the amount of sugar appropriately according to your taste.
3. The soup of boiled lotus root can be added with rice to make porridge.
