Vegetarian lotus root soup recipe

Lotus root soup is usually made with prime pork ribs. This recipe does not include any meat and is especially created for the vegetarians in mind. I'm not so sure of vegans though.

This recipe produces a light refreshing soup ideal for the hot summer heat. Although it is not a cold soup, it does helps to expel the summer heat.

If you are not a vegetarian, you can add a few pieces of pork ribs or chicken bones to the soup to enhance the flavour.

Ingredients

38g raisins
450g lotus root (lian ou)
75g fresh lotus seeds (lian zi)
38g euryale seeds (qian shi)
Pinch of salt
1.5 litre of water or vegetarian soup stock

Directions
  1. Wash and slice the lotus root

  2. Wash the lotus seeds, lily petals and euryale seeds

  3. Bring a pot of water to a boil

  4. Add the raisins, lotus root, lotus seeds, lily bulbs, euryale seeds

  5. Bring back to a boil then lower heat to a simmer

  6. Simmer for about 2 hours

  7. Season with salt before serving
