Lotus Root Cold Dish

Whenever I boil soup using lotus roots, I normally don’t eat it and it is really a waste. I found this cold dish recipe, fully utilizing the ingredients in soup.
When I made this Lotus Root and Mushrooms Soup, when the soup was ready, I removed the cooked lotus root and made it into this delicious cold dish:
My mom came for dinner that night and she was surprised by the aroma and tastiness of the cold dish (she never liked lotus root and turning it into a dish is something that she hates).
Ingredients
About 500g cooked lotus roots from soup
2 slices ginger
1 tbsp fish sauce
3 tbsp vinegar (I prefer apple cider vinegar)
2 tsp sugar
1 tsp sesame oil
Method
1. Slice ginger into shreds, set aside.
2. Cut lotus roots into thin slices. Rinse in cold boiled water and drain.
3. Mix all ingredients together. Serve.
Note: It would be nicer if you can add in 2 red chillies, diced. I don’t do that because my 2 little children can’t take it.
