The word "fish" in Chinese pronunciation is the same as the word "surplus".
To gain safety and luck, Chinese people especially during the new year will speak of good words and get a red envelope from the adult.
Fish is every family must eat on new year's eve, it symbolizes the coming new year will be better.
In my childhood, I love to eat braised fish, though now like the food in light taste.
This is the sea bass with salt and pepper, steamed for 10 minutes, and then put on some lemon slices, chili, green onion, coriander, pepper, with few garlic thin slices.
Seasoned and mix with red snapper, this is the fish I made often.
Put into boiling water for several minutes, seasoned and mixed with lime leaves, lime juice, salt, pepper, chili.
Salmon with onion and capperi is my most frequent favorite dish.
Year ends with ample surplus is just a saying, a good saying with a fish can bring people the power.
In the same time with this Chinese New Year, I also through the fish pronunciation to wish all the bloggers a very ample surplus year, good health with good fortune, and wish all the Chinese friends a very happy Chinese Lunar New Year. 恭喜發財 Gong Xi Fa Cai.新年快樂 .
