How to make fried lotus root balls

In life, there are many women who particularly like to cook in the kitchen and regard cooking as a hobby. Every dish is their successful work. When their delicious works are praised by their families, that is the greatest encouragement. Today I will introduce to you the method of making crispy fried lotus root balls, so that you can experience and enjoy the joy after success again!

1. Peel the lotus root and wash the scallion and ginger slices

2.1 Chop the lotus root into pieces and put them into a food processor together with the green onion and ginger to make a paste. The finer the better. If it is too coarse, it will not be able to be squeezed into shape (it is best to have a mortar at home, which is a professional tool for rubbing lotus root paste)

3.2 Lotus root itself has a high starch content, so add less flour, which only serves as a binder. Too much flour will affect the taste of the meatballs (determine the amount of flour added based on the starch content of the lotus root)

4.1 Add appropriate amount of flour, salt, and 1 egg (can also be omitted)

5.2 Put the mashed lotus root into a clean soup bowl

6. Stir thoroughly until it forms a ball, leaving the slightly scattered lotus root paste

7. Pour a large amount of oil into the pan and heat the oil to 80% (put a wooden chopstick in and bubbles will form on the edge immediately). Hold the spoon in your right hand and use the tiger's mouth of your left hand to squeeze out the meatballs. Use the spoon to gently put them into the pan. This step should be done quickly. If you are slow, the fried meatballs will be uneven in color.

8. Fry over medium heat until the meatballs are set, and gently push them a few times with the pan to make them evenly cooked. Continue frying until the meatballs turn golden brown and float. Use a colander to scoop out the oil

9. Drain the oil and place the meatballs on a plate

The steps for making crispy fried lotus root balls have been introduced, so you can go into the kitchen and prepare to put them into practice. I believe that after a few times of practice, you will be able to complete the preparation of this delicacy, and you will definitely be extremely excited then.
