| Vegetarian dumpling |
How time flies and thanks to our hero, Qu Yuan, it's Duan Wu Jie or the Rice Dumpling ("Bak Chang") Festival once again (25 June)!
This year, I opted for vegetarian brown rice Kiam Chang (savoury dumplings), brown rice Pua Kiam Tee ( half savoury, half sweet) and Kee Chang with red bean filling (sweet). These veg dumplings are probably not so mouth watering as non-veg ones as their filling consists mainly of mushrooms, gluten, chestnuts and nuts.
I had a pleasant surprise however when a friend presented me with two non-veg dumplings with meat and egg yolk inside. They were of course very tasty and very filling! One is enough if you want a quick lunch!

Nowadays brown rice dumplings are more popular as they are a healthy alternative to glutinous rice ones which are not so easily digestible. Incidentally, these triangle-shaped dumplings symbolize wealth as they are similar in shape to ancient Chinese gold and silver ingots.
So enjoy your dumplings and count your blessings! By the way, I didn't forget to wash my face from the tap at 12 noon for good luck and a lovely complexion!
