Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add Golden Ray until melted.

Once melted, add garlic, onion, and pimento to the pan and saute for about a minute.

Add the leftover boiled dumplings to the pan and mix well to coat them in the melted Golden Ray.

4

Add shredded carrots to the dumplings for extra sweetness and color, and mix well.

Optionally, add all-purpose seasoning for added flavor.

If you prefer crispy dumplings, leave them in the pan for an extra minute or two to crisp up on the outside.
