| Try to keep the veggie shreds at least 5cm in length so it is easier to toss them with chopsticks.
| Ice water makes carrot and radish shreds hold the curled shape, keep the texture crunchy as well as the freshness.
| Make sure the cooking oil is hot enough before deep-frying wanton wrapper, so the crunchies are crunchy.
Drizzle dressing over Yu Sheng ingredients on the platter. Get everyone to toss the salad with chopsticks and LOU AR, HUAT AR, ONG AR, HENG AR!
