Lotus Chips

Dim Sum and Other Snack Foods

Lotus Chips
Ingredients:
3 sections fresh lotus stems
2 Tablespoons cornstarch
2 cups vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
Preparation:
1. Peel lotus stems, cut away their ends, them cut them crosswise on an angle into one-sixteenth-inch slices. Toss them with the cornstarch and set aside for half an hour. Shake the slices in a colander to remove any excess cornstarch.
2. Heat oil and deep fry half the slices until golden brown. Remove, drain on paper towels. Fry the second half of them, and drain as before. Then put fried slices or chips into a bowl and sprinkle salt over them, stir, and serve or use as decor.
