About

I first discovered these seriously tasty vegetarian dumplings in Madras (now known as Chennai), when I was scared to eat anything containing meat through fear of food poisoning! Bright red inside, they look fantastic, and are adaptable to a range of meals. I serve these on one of my most popular curries, which happens to be a fish curry.
