Notes:
i got the idea for the recipe from my Mak Nah, in exchange for my Lasagna recipe. it's rather simple, really. but the suggestion for the things to ride the steam boat, ha, that needs more thinking, such so we will get a balanced meal.

you can try these, should mental blocks happen (as it happened to me):

baby carrots

variety of balls

broccoli, sliced

sliced crabsticks
enoki mushrooms

frankfurters, sliced

prawns, deshelled and deveined

white squids, sliced and cleaned

sliced shiitake mushrooms
beehoon, boiled first
wantan mee, loosened
kangkong (chinese water spinach)

spinach
quail's eggs
sliced meat (optional to be prepped with garlic and salt)
crabs, cleaned and crushed
baby sawi (park choy)

variety of dim sums
