Gong Xi Fa Cai!

Here are some staple food that is a must to usher in the lunar new year. Mandarin oranges! They come in all sizes, and some along with their twigs and leaves too... Look how bright their colours are!

My sis brought this 'yu sheng' set back from KL. Now, what does it look like on a dish? Proceed to next photo ...

Abalone yu sheng! Of course abalone is excluded from the box set...haha....or else the 'yu sheng' would've cost a bomb! I only managed to snap a photo before the stuff is mixed together. After the deed was done, the whole family was too busy eating to be taking more photos.

My mom's fish maw soup. The fish maw is usually stuffed with minced pork, and this has become a common dish for our Chinese New Year dinner. Of course the Hainanese Chicken Rice is also another of our tradition, but more on that next time. My sister and I had taken down all the notes on how to cook the Hainanese Chicken Rice, and we're still compiling the photos =P
