~ ~ Can you "spot" me eagerly watching my family assembling the 'yusheng' ingredients ? ~ ~















~ ~ What a colourful plate !!!! ~ ~















All the lucky/colourful ingredients of raw fish (traditionally mackeral) but this year Mummy used salmon as its our favourite (especially Grandma's) - so we had LOTS, shredded green & white radish, shredded carrots, pickled ginger, pomelo, crushed peanuts, sesame seeds, pepper, oil and plum sauce. This year, we also had lots of colourful wiggly-looking crispies. So Yummy !

The tossing was awesome (wish I could hold chopsticks), especially with everyone saying something special each time a different ingredient was added or poured over the salad.
