One thing good about sizzlers is that the food is
steaming hot till the last spoon. Second thing is the novelty of the sizzling
plate that comes shooshing on your table like a steam engine parking on your
space, the smoke from the plate blinding you, the colorful combination of different
assorted vegetables and that slurpy sauce make it even more exotic. More-over
it’s a complete meal by itself and one plateful should suffice for nutrients
required to go all day.
No wonder, sizzler can be made of the combination of your choice and there is no rule as such that
it has to be made in a particular way. You can neatly arrange all the
ingredients side by side or you can place them piled up one by one, the main
taste is in the sauce that you pour over it and there are
various types of sauces that you could
experiment with to give your dish different
flavors
each time.
