Usually we rarely eat rock sugar Xianglian, northerners have seen a lot of things have not seen, so sharing the southern cuisine to the northern friends is also a kind of happiness, lotus seeds can defeat the fire, many people on fire are recommended to use lotus cores to soak water to drink.
Directions: Remove the core of the lotus seeds bought, add them to warm water and soak them for a while, then put them into the steamer to steam, the lotus seeds must be soft and rotten before they can be eaten, raw or half-raw can not be eaten, which is not good for the body. If you want to shorten the time, you can soak ten minutes in advance, and then this kung fu needs to prepare a pineapple, peeled and diced, spring is the pineapple popular season, fruit shop a basket of pineapples, emitting sweetness, you have to buy sweet cooked thoroughly, boiled out to be delicious, raw boiled out bitter, pineapple pieces do not cut too big, and usually eat fruit salad about the same size can be.
Prepare a stainless steel wok, wash the wok and put it on medium heat, put in water and bring it to a boil, put the rock sugar into it to melt thoroughly, then turn off the heat, use a strainer to filter the sugar water out, pour the rock sugar water back into the pot, add the rest of the ingredients, green beans, pineapple, cinnamon balls, and the cherries that everyone loves to eat at this time in the spring, boil on high heat, turn the heat down and simmer until soft and rotten.
Remove the steamed lotus seeds, put them in a pot, and cook them together until they are cooked until they are completely floating on top, which is cooked. Or take one out and taste it.
Tips: When making rock sugar Xianglian, the lotus seeds must be thoroughly washed, teach you a trick, you can use a small brush or sponge scrubbing, add some alkaline to wash more clean. The lotus core came out with a poke of a needle.
The amount of rock sugar is moderate, as long as it is sweet, and it does not have to add too much. If the family likes to eat other fruits, you can also embellish it, anyway, you make it at home, delicious is the most important.
Pineapple is rich in vitamins and trace elements, this season many people will buy, I generally put pineapple and yogurt together to squeeze juice to drink, rarely eat directly, because direct eating feels uncomfortable throat, so everyone can change the pattern to make food, as long as it is good for the body can be shared.
