I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my stuffing turned out really dry. Maybe I didn't add enough liquid?

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover rice. I also added some chopped carrots and celery to the stuffing.

This dish was a bit too bitter for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. The stuffing was tasty though.

Not a huge fan of bitter melon, but this recipe changed my mind. The stuffing was so good that it masked the bitterness of the melon. Will definitely make again!

This bitter melon dish was a hit! The bitterness was perfectly balanced by the savory stuffing, and the steamed cooking method preserved the melon's nutrients. I'll definitely be making this again.
