  3. Heat 1 tablespoon Oil in a frying pan or wok over high heat and cook 1/2 of Frozen Lotus Root until browned and just cooked enough. Transfer to a plate. Add extra Oil and cook remaining Frozen Lotus Root Slices until browned and just cooked enough.

  4. Return the first batch to the pan, add the sauce and Edamame, and cook until the sauce is caramelised.
