[QUOTE="kesun, post: 1055684, member: 39776"] Steamed fish: shred or cut into thin strips ginger and chilli peppers; heap on top of a whole white fish; shake some light soya sauce on top and steam it. In Chinese, "you yu" (to have fish) sounds the same as "to have a surplus"; hence this is a lucky New Year dish as it symbolises having plenty in the coming year. You could also prepare rice but not eat it: this symbolises having plenty of food in the coming year and combines the benefit of zero carbs with the disadvantage of zero nutrition. :) Happy new year!
