Yee fu mein, also known as long life noodles, is very nostalgic for me. My mum would often cook up a Chinese New Year feast with dishes such as kiam chye ak, jiu hu char and braised goose. In addition to those dishes, she would whip up a platter of these delicious slippery noodles. As the name suggests, long life noodles signify longevity in life, as well as prosperity and good luck for the year ahead.
