For this recipe, anything goes. We want lots of colour and preferably foods with auspicious names and meanings. Pick and choose from the following: lettuce, carrots, white radish, abalone, eggs, peanuts, scallops, shrimp, fish, jelly fish, salmon roe, tobiko, pomelo, celery, apples, peppers, octopus, lobster, sea cucumber, geoduck, cucumber, leeks, green papaya, cucumbers, noodles and garlic. The list can go on. You also want a topper… something crispy, like croutons in a salad. You can use deep-fried spring roll wrappers. We usually crush up a bag of pea crackers and they taste great with the salad. You can add any kind of sauce or dressing. The traditional Cantonese sauce uses tangerine juice with plum sauce. My favourite is Thai chili sauce mixed with Japanese mayo.
