This dombolo recipe is perfect for rainy weather, and with the warm stew, it’s just divine. This delicious meal is amazing for the entire family. If you are vegetarian, make a vegetable curry instead, soaking the dumplings inside the delicious sauce.
2. French onion soup
@eitan Winter is coming and so is this French Onion Soup 😋 #winter #soup #yum #recipe #homemade ♬ original sound Eitan Bernath
Try this soup on its own, or with bread or croutons accompanying the meal. This dish is hearty and suits various dietary requirements. If you are vegan, you do not have to add cheese on top of the soup and have parsley, or any green vegetable as a topper instead.
3. Sausage delight
