“No matter how old you become, when you are with your sibling you revert back to childhood.”

À couple of years back on my visit to my mom’s place, my dearest brother threw a surprise birthday party of mine since I happened to be there on that day almost after two decades. My beloved bhabhi along with her little angels left no stone unturned to make it a memorable one in spite of my father not being around. These little gestures are worth a thousand words. The menu included a fabulous spread but the one dish that stole my heart away was the scrumptious chicken lollipop. Although I had relished it a number of times earlier too, there was something about its taste that made it distinct. Indeed my recipe is borrowed from our hotel chef who willingly shared it with me. Try it yourself to experience the distinctive flavor of chicken lollipop.
