Hi,

I am transfering some rice from one plate to another, and I am seeking permission from someone.

Can I use " shall I move the rice to other plate ?"

"Transfer" is too technical. Unless you are striving for a facetious effect, do not use the word.

How about this:
Do you mind if I give you some rice from my plate?

I m not entirely sure what you are trying to say, but it seems that you should say:
.

May I have some of your rice?

Depending on the formality of the situation you might say the following

"Do you mind if I serve you?" -- this would be amongst friends and you were holding the plate of rice in your hands...

That would seem to be appropriate here (along with "Would you like some of my rice?")
