Vegan Bites: Spicy Lotus

 Framma Chopping Lotus

Framma almost lost her fingertip to this prize Chinese recipe!

Credit for this spicy dish goes directly to my dear friends nanny, who creates amazing Chinese meals.

Much to Frampa's dismay, lotus comes straight from the mud beneath the lotus flower.

Rest assured, it has health benefits to help you look beyond it's origin.  http://www.nutrition-and-you.com/lotus-root.html
