Sauteed Lotus Root

• 1 stick Lotus Root
• 1 Tablespoon Vegetable Oil
• 1 piece Ginger, Peeled And Thinly Sliced
• 3 cloves Garlic, Minced
• 3 bunches Spring Onions, Only The White Parts, Sliced On The Bias
• 1 Tablespoon Sesame Oil
• 1 Tablespoon Soy Sauce
• 1 teaspoon Sugar

1. Slice lotus root as thinly as you possibly can, and as you do that, toss each slice into a bowl of vinegar water to prevent the lotus roots from oxidizing.
2. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet.
3. When pan is hot, throw in ginger and garlic and move them around for about 2030 seconds until aromatic but before they burn.
4. Add spring onions and lotus root, turning the heat down to medium as you do.
5. At this time, there will be very little oil in the pan, so add the sesame oil.
6. Continue to saute all the ingredients in the pan for about 1 minute before adding the soy sauce and sugar.
7. Toss everything together to evenly coat the ingredients with the soy sauce.
8. When the lotus root slices have taken on a beautiful golden caramelized hue, turn the heat off and serve!
