In reply to Healthy World Cuisine. No I'm not going home this Chinese New Year, that's why I've been baking a lot of New Year goodies in my own Test Kitchen too! ;)

In reply to Jasline @ Foodie Baker. Thanks so much Jasline! I bet you have not eaten lotus root this way and that is why I wanted to give this recipe a try in my Test Kitchen. I love the crispy texture with the bright and clean flavor. Are you coming home for Chinese New Year?

I've never eaten lotus roots like this! We only use them in soups or tempura them. This looks like a new and delicious twist! Unfortunately lotus roots aren't available here so I'll have to wait until I go back to Singapore to make them!

In reply to The Foodie Affair. Thank you Sandra, I don't think there is anything similar as most generally lotus root is eaten as a savory dish but it is much like tofu as it takes on the flavors of whatever ingredients are in the dish.

So unique! I love the meaning behind this beautiful veggie and the orange and star anise sounds delicious together!

Interesting, I never cooked lotus roots like this as we only use them in stews, I learned something new today

Very cool recipe. I am familiar with lotus root, even bought some a couple of times, but was not sure what recipe to use it with. will try this for sure. So neat to read about the round significance of food too.
