Yee Sang (Prosperity Toss Salad)

Tap an ingredient or step to check it off.

1. 1Step 1: Warm a little vegetable oil in a small skillet or frying pan so that you have a layer around 1/4 inch (6mm) deep. You can also deep fry if you have a deep fryer. Once the oil is hot, cook a few strips of wonton wrappers at a time, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Keep a close eye as they cook quickly and can easily get too brown or burn if left too long. Turn as they start to brown to cook the other side, then remove and drain on kitchen paper or paper towel. Repeat with all of the strips of wonton.
2. 2Step 2: Cut the cucumber, carrot and daikon radish into chunks around 2 inches (5cm) long, then cut each into thin strips (julienne). This is often easiest by cutting into slices then cutting each slice. Cut the salmon into strips and break the pomelo (or grapefruit) into chunks.
3. 3Step 3: Place the carrot, cucumber, radish, lettuce and pomelo in little stacks around the plate, each item separate. Place the salmon on the plate as well, along with the crispy wonton strips. Put the pickled ginger in the middle. Mix together the plum sauce and hoisin.
4. 4Step 4: Traditionally you then add the peanuts and sesame seeds before drizzling over the dressing and tossing everything together as a group. But if not serving as traditionally, you can just add and mix on plate as you eat.
