Yield: Serves 2
- 1 medium lotus root (renkon)
- salt and black pepper to taste
- oil
Wash and peel the lotus root. Cut with a knife or use a mandolin slider to make 1/8 inch thin slices. Drain the lotus root slices and pat them completely dry.
Heat the oil in a pan to 340F on medium high heat. Add the slices a few at a time (do not overcrowd the pan) and deep fry until crispy and golden brown.
Once they are nicely fried, spread on a paper towel to absorb extra oil. Season with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
