Turnip cake, also known as radish cake or Lo Bak Go, is a dim sum staple at yum cha. It's also a popular Lunar New Year dish as it symbolizes good fortune. It's commonly made with ingredients such as dried shrimp and Chinese sausage, but this is a vegan version with shiitake mushrooms that is just as tasty and is healthier!
