Oyster & Sausage Wraps
This is a classic Chinese New Year dish, containing ingredients that are plays on words in Chinese: oysters which represent good fortune, mushrooms which represent opportunity and lettuce which represent wealth and prosperity. The textures and flavors combine to a delicious stuffing that can be wrapped in lettuce or flour pancakes. There's lots of cutting here, which is a challenge to perfect your knife skills!Embedded Files
