Lotus stem, locally known as “Nadru” in Kashmir and “Kamal Kakdi” in India, is one of the novelties of Kashmir valley. It grows in shallow parts of water bodies like Dal Lake, Wular Llake, Mansar Lake, and ponds. The lotus stem although an expensive delicacy is much loved in Kashmir and is used in many Kashmiri dishes. In most of the Asian countries, almost every part of this plant is consumed, but here in the valley, only the stem and its seed are in demand.
Lotus root is an underwater root vegetable, creamy white in colour with porous structure, and has a shape resembling a long stick.
