Yee Sang - Chinese New Year Prosperity Salad

I made a Yee Sang 鱼生, Chinese New Year Prosperity Salad.

 

I used shredded carrot, Chinese radish, cucumber, ya/nashi pears, candied orange peel and topped with coriander, sesame, chopped peanuts and finely sliced kaffir lime leaves.

 

The dressing was a light olive oil and plum sauce. (not shown)

 

We used salmon 三文鱼 for the raw fish, which is marinated in lime juice, five-spice powder 五香粉 and white pepper. (not shown)

 

For crunch, I used a packet of Chang's crunchy noodles (not shown)

 

Update 2007.02.18: 2007's Yee Sang was more sophisticated :)
