| P |
Peel the skin off the lotus root, grate it and drain lightly. |
| Q |
Remove the vein from the back of the prawn and boil briefly. Remove the shell and cut into small pieces. Boil the green beans and cut into small pieces. Steep the Jew's ear in water and cut into thin strips. |
| R |
Mix the grated lotus root, prawn, green beans, Jew's ear and the salt together. Place 1/4 of the mixture on a sheet of plastic wrap, wrap it tightly by twisting the ends of the plastic wrap together. Repeat the same procedure to make four round dumplings. Cook them in a steamer. |
| S |
Boil the rape plant until the color turns bright green, and cut into bite-size pieces. |
| T |
Combine the stock and the seasonings in a pan, and bring to a boil. Stir in the starch and water mixture to thicken the sauce. Place the dumplings and rape plant on serving dishes and pour the sauce over them. Top with grated yuzu citrus and the tiny rice crackers. |
EAmong the many cooking methods, steaming is most likely to lower the calories of the dish because it requires no oil, compared to stir frying or deep frying methods. Moreover, the advantage is that the flavor and nutrition of the ingredients is retained. Therefore, this dish is recommended especially for those who wish to limit their calorie intake due to health concerns, such as being diabetic or overweight, and also for those who eat out often or who tend toward fatty meals.
