Rice Dumpling in Vegetable Stew
Rice Dumpling in Vegetable Stew is a healthy recipe because it does not use a drop of oil! I like vegetable stew with any type of bread as well as appam, paratha etc. So I tried this recipe with rice dumpling in it. It comes out really good. It contains sweet aroma of cinnamon and ginger .Hope all of you like its taste.
