Yee Sang is one of those fun recipes that always turns out right. It is popular during Chinese New Year with people in Malaysia and Singapore because the names mean “abundance” and “liveliness,” both of which are auspicious for the coming year.
Collect the following ingredients but, truthfully, one can pick the items that they best like. If you don’t have one of the ingredients, double up on what you have or substitute.
7 oz fresh salmon, tuna or any white fish of your choice
3 oz shredded carrots
3 oz shredded cucumbers
3 oz pickled white ginger
3 oz pickled red ginger
6 oz sliced radish or daikon
3 oz sliced pickled leek
3 oz shredded pickled papaya
10oz pomelo or grapefruit sections
1 oz pickled shallots
2 oz ground peanuts
2oz sesame seeds
3 oz jellyfish
2 oz dried shredded lime
1 oz green seaweed
2 oz of yam crisps in red color
2 oz of yam crisps in green color
2 oz of yam crisps in yellow colour
3 oz of “Pok Chui” or flour crisps. *substitute with fried wanton skins
For the dressing:
Freshly-squeezed juice of 1 lime
5 oz plum sauce
1 teaspoon onion oil
Dash of five spice powder
Dash of pepper
Pinch of salt
Slice fishes and season with a little salt and lime juice. Arrange all the ingredients into sections on a large serving platter. Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds and chopped peanuts over the dish. Make the dressing by whisking all the ingredients together and keep in separate container until just before serving. Just before dining, pour dressing over the salad, and everyone at the table simultaneously uses their chopsticks to toss the salad while making wishes and toasting for the New Year. Enjoy and Happy New Year.
