PROSPER


This dish of braised dried mushrooms with dried oysters and scallops symbolizes wealth.   Dried hair moss is the most important ingredient as it represents prosperity.

Soak mushrooms, oysters and scallops and save the water for stock.  Boil a piece of medium-size ginger with oysters and scallops with the stock till soft.   Coat mushrooms with a thin coat of cornflour and fry till fragrant.  Add mushrooms & hair moss to the scallops and oysters to continue braising till mushrooms are soft.  Before serving sprinkle a few drops of sesame oil.
