Ramadan Nombu Kanji Recipe – Vegetarian Nombu Kanji – Ramzan, Iftar Recipes

This is something totally new which I tried the first year of moving to Singapore. This is something I have tasted at my hubby friend’s house. They actually made chicken one. They made this vegetarian version for me (so nice of them) after that I  haven’t tasted it till last year. I decided to blog the recipe not sure whether this is authentic but definitely tastier one.
