A recent video making the rounds on social media has left the internet divided. The clip features an unconventional culinary creation— ‘kaju katli bhajiya’. Kaju katli is a much-loved sweet made from cashews and sugar syrup. In this viral video, however, the delicate squares of dessert are dipped in a chickpea flour (besan) batter and then deep-fried.
The video was shared by @news24official on Instagram and this sweet-savoury fusion has caused quite a stir. While some viewers are intrigued by the potential for a unique flavour combination, others are horrified by the idea of frying the traditional sweet.
The video has received over 5,000 views and comments.
Watch the video below:
One user wrote, “Arrest Karo!!!!!! Justice for kaju katli.” Another user said, “When time and money are useless on a man, people do new drama like this.” A third chimed in, “Katli ke Katal ke ilzaam me giraftaar karo isko,” which translates to “Arrest him for the murder of Kaju katli.”
Whether ‘kaju katli bhajiya’ is a hit or flop, it certainly won’t be the last time someone experiments with food.
