2 cups cooked chicken, cut into matchstick-size shreds
1 1/2 cups cooked ham, cut into matchstick-size shreds
2 cups shredded carrots
1 cup shredded celery
2 cups fresh bean sprouts, rinsed lightly and drained
1 tablespoon mustard powder
2 tablespoons hot water
1/2 cup plum or duck sauce
3 tablespoons clear rice vinegar
2 tablespoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablesspoon sugar
18 steamed spring roll wrappers or Mandarin pancakes

Steps:

Arrange the shredded chicken, ham, carrots, celery and bean sprouts in separate concentric circles or any decorative pattern on a large platter.
Prepare the mustard sauce by blending the powdered mustard and hot water to a smooth paste. Cover and let sit 10 minutes to bring out the mustard's flavor. Add the remaining ingredients and mix to a smooth sauce. Transfer it to a decorative serving dish. Before serving, add the sauce to the salad and toss lightly to coat. Spoon some of the chicken and ham mixture into a steamed spring roll wrapper or a Mandarin pancake, roll up and eat. The salad may also be served without the pancakes by pouring the sauce on each serving.
