Minced Pork Patties with Lotus Root Recipe

Every time I cook lotus root soup, I would get leftovers of lotus root as it’s often sold in huge sizes in the supermarket and it’s just too much for a pot of soup. So these days, I would first slice up a small bunch and keep in the fridge for next day to prepare these Minced Pork Patties with Lotus Root as a dish for dinner.

We love dipping these patties in sweet chilli sauce. The lotus root and carrot strips give a nice crunch to the meat. Absolutely delicious. Enjoy!
