Description

Hot Dog.A comforting textural colorful delight. Crazy me ,the first time i heard about this was like yuk how can people eat dogs. Got to know about sausages and hot dogs through my NRI friends from gulf in school.But first got to taste it when my class mate Christine got it all the way from Dubai just for me to know what it was. I didn’t fancy it much tough. While on a holiday trip abroad my boy afzar used to fill himself with sausages for breakfast as lunch was had only by 4.30 to 5 in the evening. My veggie girl anisha used to run away from his plate saying that thing looks wired.My boy afzer and son-in-law Riyaz love sausages.Well now my veggie girl cooks sausages for her hubby eventhough she hates the sight of it. Only recently sausages are available at my place, so have started experimenting with them in my kitchen.
