Hello Everyone!!

I hope you all are good and doing well. Today I'm here to be a part of this amazing contest SLC S-30-W2// "Tradional Steam Cooking-Raagi Puttu(Steamed Finger Millet Cake)" organized by @jyoti-thelight . Through this contest I'm learning steam cooking that i have never tried before. Today when I started to plan making this unique steam cake I was confused how steam can give a flour to a cake texture but my experience was quite good. This is a healthy option to make different delicious recipes.

Let's start today's contest;

List the steamed dishes made in your region. Which one is your favorite and why? (2 Marks)

In my region steamed dishes are not very common at my home but they are made here and some are very popular. Those who loves light food and choose healthy food they like steam food. Some popular examples of Steamed dishes are momos , Steamed fish, Steamed chicken, Steamed potatoes, and dumplings.

I love Steamed chicken alot because I'm a chicken lover and love to try new recipes. I like this recipe because its light , soft and juicy, all spices and coating after steam makes chicken perfect to enjoy. You can eat thos chicken without worrying of high calories.
