My favourite food—zongzi
My favourite food is a popular Chinese dish—zongzi, which is usualy served during the Dragon Boat Festival. Zongzi is iike a pyramid-shaped dumpling. This tasty dish is made of rice and wrapped in bamboo or reed leaves to give it a special flavour,lt consists of meat, peanut, egg yolk or other fillings.
