Every Chinese New Year, I will be looking forward to Yu Sang! It is always a fun event to gather with loved ones to toss this dish. It is a great way to celebrate the festive season with family, friends and colleagues. The dish itself symbolizes abundance and prosperity.

This dish usually comprises of fish, a variety of vegetables and different sauces. Some versions come with salmon or jellyfish.
