Praising the creative use of the electric kettle, another Instagram user wrote, “That one kettle is enough🤘🤘🤘”. Yet another user said, “Butane gas can and stove takes less space than a kettle and you can cook anything on it…. camping cookware are perfect for hostel students.”

This is not the only video of improvised cooking that has gone viral. In January 2018, a popular Facebook group, Edmonton Vich Punjabis, shared a video that showed a Punjabi family making chapatis using a fireplace instead of a stove. It showed a woman rolling out the dough in front of a wooden fireplace and serving her family hot phulkas. She had to use the fireplace because of a prolonged power outage, a man could be heard explaining in the clip.
