Non-Fried Vegetable Chips in the Microwave
- 1 Kabocha squash
- 1 Lotus root
- 1 Carrot
- 1 Salt
- Peel the carrot and lotus root and slice them with a mandoline.
- The kabocha squash is quite hard, so be careful not to injure yourself when preparing it.
- Soak the lotus root slices in water for a while to prevent them from changing colour.
- While the lotus root is soaking, start heating the rest of the vegetables up in the microwave.
- If you slice the carrot into strips rather than circles it'll be harder to burn them.
- Pat the vegetables dry and arrange them on a large plate without them overlapping.
- If you want to season the vegetables with salt, do it now!
- Then put the plate in the microwave and heat the vegetables for 1-2 minutes.
- Then turn the vegetables over and cook them for another 1-2 minutes (this will help the vegetables to cook faster and the end product will be prettier).
- Be careful not to burn yourself!
- Since these vegetables contain less moisture than potatoes or sweet potatoes, they will cook quicker.
- They're easy to burn though so please be careful.
- When the moisture has all evaporated and the vegetable slices are dry and crispy, they're ready to eat.
