1 cup shredded lettuce

3 tbsp plum sauce
1 tbsp lime juice

1 Prepare the Ingredients
Slice the salmon fillet into thin sashimi-style pieces and chill in the refrigerator. Julienne the carrot, radish, cucumber, and capsicum into thin strips. Arrange these vegetables on a large platter alongside the shredded lettuce and coriander.
2 Assemble the Salad
Arrange the sliced salmon in the centre of the platter. Place pomelo or mandarin segments around the salmon. Sprinkle the salad with crushed peanuts, sesame seeds, and crispy wonton strips for added crunch and flavour.
3 Mix the Dressing and Toss the Salad
In a small bowl, whisk together the plum sauce, lime juice, sesame oil, and a pinch of white pepper. Drizzle the dressing evenly over the salad. Gather your guests for the tossing ritual—using chopsticks, toss the salad high while saying auspicious phrases for health and wealth. Serve immediately.
