Lotus root  :  7 oz  (200 g)
Soy sauce : 4 tbs
Salad oil  :  2 tbs

1. Wash and peel the lotus roots, then slice them about 1/4 inch thick.

2. Heat the salad oil in a fry pan. Cook the lotus roots over medium heat.
   
3. Mix soy sauce with sugar well. When lotus roots are almost done, add the mixed sauce.
   
4. Cover the lid of the pan. Boil the lotus roots down over low heat until they become glossy and the mixed sauce dwindles away into almost nothing.
   
5. Transfer it to a serving plate. Sprinkle roasted sesame seeds.
