How to make crispy lemongrass floss
To prepare crispy lemongrass floss, follow these steps:
- Cut and finely pound: Cut lemongrass into one-finger-length pieces, bruise them, then place into a mortar and pound until very fine.
- Shred or grind into floss: If lemongrass juice is needed for marinating meat, squeeze out the liquid. Then, use your hands to shred the remaining pulp into small fibers. If you have a floss grinder (typically used for making shredded pork floss), you can use it to grind the lemongrass into floss, which is faster than shredding by hand.
- Fry the lemongrass: Place the lemongrass into a hot pan with oil and fry until golden and fragrant, then remove.
- Final product: The lemongrass will be golden and fragrant. Spread it evenly on a plate with chopsticks to garnish fried and salt-roasted dishes.
