I had a lot of fun working on today’s recipe! For one thing, I finally got to use a pair of cast iron sizzling pans I originally purchased for making fajitas. These are very like the ones most Mexican restaurants in the US use.
But it also brought back memories of sizzling hot plate dishes Bill and I used to get at some Chinese restaurants in St Louis back in our early days together. Yes, we bonded at least partly over food. It’s a shared love that has lasted years.
The trick to using these pans is to preheat them so they’re really good and hot, then place the already cooked food onto them for serving. That produces the entertaining sizzle and display of steam and sends all those wonderful aromas throughout the room.
And to think this all became a thing in India because of a guy who had a sizzling plate at a – wait for it – Sizzler restaurant in the US! Pretty awesome, and the possibilities are only limited by your imagination really.
Part of the equipment used in this recipe is a cast iron sizzler platter with a wooden serving tray. If you need one, Amazon has them available.
