To start, one can begin making radish cake, a comfort food enjoyed by many Chinese families that also symbolizes good fortune for the year to come. Start by grating daikon and adding a dash of salt. Then in a hot wok, fry shallots and add dried shrimp and Chinese sausage. Put in the grated radish, and add salt, black pepper and chicken powder. In a bowl combine all-purpose flour, sweet potato flour, egg and water. Stir the batter well then add the radish mixture and spring onion. Pan-fry the mixture in the wok for about three minutes on each side then it’s ready to serve!

Try your hand at making your own pork and shrimp siomai – mix chopped prawns in corn starch and salt and create a ground pork filling by mixing the pork with corn starch, ground white pepper, granulated sugar, Shaoxing cooking wine, light soy sauce, fish sauce, sesame oil and unsalted cooking stock. Rehydrate dried shiitake mushrooms and add finely chopped scallions and grated ginger.

Noodles are a symbol of long life and are staple dishes during special occasions. If you’re pressed for time, cook a simple stir fry noodle dish like Chinese Egg Noodles with Oyster Sauce. Cook mashed garlic, onion and brussels sprouts in a wok then add chopped green beans and sliced carrots. Then sprinkle the vegetables with oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil and fish sauce. Season with a pinch of black pepper then add the egg noodles. Add pepper, oyster sauce, fish sauce, soy sauce or sesame oil to taste.
Fish in Chinese is called yú which sounds like “surplus” in Chinese; it represents prosperity and are usually served whole. A simple but flavorful way to serve fish is to rub it with salt and stuff the interior with ginger and scallion disks from the bottom of the leek. For added flavor, you can also place the fish on a plate with a bed of leek disks. Steam the fish in a large shallow pan. Once it’s cooked, top with sautéed leeks and ginger, then pour soy sauce to taste.
End your meal on a sweet note by making Chinese egg tarts – create a custard with salt, eggs, granulated sugar and evaporated milk, then heat and stir the mixture on the stove until the sugar dissolves. Let it cool then fill your muffin-sized crust with the custard and bake.
