Keep a wide vessel aside to heat water and add a tablespoon of oil. When the water starts boiling, drop these stuffed balls into the water. Now reduce the gas flame and boil it for about 15 minutes. Hot fare is ready for you. Make curry of your taste with this. If you eat it with curry, the taste of the curry will increase four times. This can also be served with chutney or favorite chutney.
