Chinese leek, Suan Chai.. so can count money.. so more money comes your way.. another auspicious dish and a must have during CNY
Bamboo shoot, Shun.. so do everything can be smooth (shun).. Also must include during CNY
Fish, is another must have dish.. for nian nian you yi.. year of abundance and excess.. This is not done yet..
Here it is the finished result, sweet and sour fish.. looks reddish orangish.. suit the festive mood. Care must be taken when eating the fish... the bones cannot be broken and must have leftover to bring over to the first day of CNY.. Everybody is very careful not to break the bone, even thinking how best to flip the fish hehe
Pork trotter with sea cucumber.. I'm not sure if there is any significant meaning, so let me come out with one myself... pig trotter and sea cucumber known for the collagen content, so eating this will stay beautiful :p
