Quick Crystal Dumpling

I love crystal dumplings, their beautiful translucent soft and chewy skin is just heavenly. But they are quite a task to make, to ease the process I’ve got an easy hack for y’all.

RICE PAPER - Using rice paper as my dumpling wrapper has been life changing. It’s quick, easy, and so tasty!! Try it to believe it!!

Ingredients
1/2 Cabbage chopped
1/2 Carrot grated
2 Scallions / spring onions
(Only the greens)
2 tsp Garlic chopped
1/2 cup Paneer/ tofu grated
1 Tbsp Soy Sauce
1 tsp Sesame seed oil
Salt to taste
10 Rice paper

Mix all the ingredients except the rice paper in a bowl, you could cook them too. Dip the rice paper in water for not more than 20 seconds. Place it gently on your chopping board, add prepared filling in the middle and wrap the rice paper.Steam in a steamer or air fry and enjoy with our chilli oil.

Welcome one and all to the new look - new reboot of the EEL Birmingham and Leicester business hub in town 🚀

Must admit midlands (Leicester and Birmingham) businesses have not had the scale of PR / Media & networking events like most of the London & M25 based regional EEL business hubs but let’s try again in 2023 with renewed interest and energy of those who would like to join us for b2b events

We are delighted that a new committee of members have been formed to support the initiative:





They are ideally based all over midlands, covering birmingham, Leicester and all the way to Coventry as well so we can tap in businesses and entrepreneurs locally now for ‘23

If you wish to join the hub on our WA group, please get in touch with us or the above hub committee leads today

Thank you and let’s meet soon: kick off event planned Feb’ end 23.

Best wishes,
EEL Association

M A Y - A special one  🪷

STEPPING OUT OF MY SHADOW.

May is the month when I became a mother.
Yes, it was in 2015.
I have two daughters, Rubaani and Serene , both May Born!
And yes, it changed the trajectory of who I was and who I've become.

Last year, I was delighted to bring my brand and business to you all

And I've been blessed 🪔

The old me is so proud of the new me 🧿

There was a time:

❓I felt so lost.
❓I felt like I would never get out of this feeling of quicksand.
❓will I ever start my business full time.
❓all my dreams and visions felt like teasers.
❓I lacked confidence.
❓I played small and did not take chances out of fear.
❓I believed that women were not meant to dream big.
❓I believed women are suppose to show up for everyone else ONLY!!!!!
❓I thought women cannot SHAKE THE GROUND.
❓I believed women had to MARCH on the beat men created.
❓I thought a woman’s identity came from her husband.
❓I thought being a MOTHER completed me.
❓I thought my dreams and visions would stop bothering me once I became a mother.
❓I thought only men leave a “legacy” or make the “change.”

I look back at the old me and she is SMILING BACK AT ME WITH TEARS STREAMING DOWN AND THANKING ME FOR MARCHING FORWARD!

It did not happen over night.

❗️the right people always showed up in my life and guided/helped me.
❗️I stayed true to my practice.
❗️I committed to learning and growing.
❗️I trusted my intuition.
❗️I AM LIVING MY DREAM and WILL CONTINUE TO DO SO!

Life is a journey…keep charging forward.

Take a moment to look within and see what direction you need to move towards.

The jars. They glisten! Isn’t it a beautiful looking Chili oil?

The cheerleader effect is strong here. Although each jar is just as good looking on its own.
