Happy Chinese New Year (Year of Monkey)

新年快乐 ! We are officially in the year of Monkey. Wish everyone good health, prosperity, happiness, peace, and success. Hope it is a delicious one as well.

Traditionally, we eat nian gao (sticky sweet rice cake) during the day, since it is vegetarian. I tried making it first time this year. It tasted alright, not like the one in Mauritius obviously, but getting there. 

Here is a round of Chinese New Year dinner on Saturday at my uncle's place.

Chicken, stuffed fish tofu, and green veg
Lotus seed, red date and white fungus dessert 
My 'nian gao'
Biscuits
