\"chicken<\/p>\n

A healthy appetizer; it’s steam cooked and it tastes good…<\/p>\n

Today was the hottest day I have ever experienced after coming to Canada, it was 45 degrees C. After having heavy rain for the past few weeks, this sizzling hot weather is unbelievable for us. Having experienced the sizzling hot weather for a few days in Dubai (it was around 55 degrees C), I shouldn’t be complaining this 45 degrees C. In Dubai it was burning hot, you literally cannot stand outside for a minute. My heart really goes out to all those people who have to work outside in construction field. Anyway, since I work indoors I experience the heat only when I walk outside to the parking lot to take my car. Since it’s Ramadan, I am just staying indoors in the evening. So, everyone stay cool and drink lots of water.<\/p>\n

The other day, Lubna an awesome food blogger and food photographer who writes at Yummy Food<\/a> had invited me to participate an event “Joy from fasting to feasting”<\/a> that she is hosting for Ramadan. I didn’t have to think twice to say yes as I have been a follower of her blog since I started my blog. I would say she was one of the food bloggers that I had known when I started my blog 4 years ago. I had shared my recipe for making “Chicken Samosa” as this is one of the appetizers that’s often made in my house during Ramadan. My dear readers do check her blog, I can only say that you will be glued to it, you will find drool worthy dishes and stunning pictures. Thanks Lubna for the invitation, it was my pleasure being a part of your Ramadan event.<\/p>\n

I have no idea why I made a healthy Ramadan resolution, this time I am not much into making fried snacks and greasy dishes. Since we break the fast at 9 pm, it’s really hard to consume all those greasy and fatty food. So, I have been making healthy and light dishes. This is one such healthy appetizers I’d made a couple of days ago. I had some leftover chicken that I had made for making chicken stuffed chapati, I used that chicken to stuff into the rice dough and steam cooked it. It was delicious and quite a healthy appetizer.<\/p>\n
