This viral recipe is dividing the internet

In Indian households, cooking and sharing meals together is an integral part of our culture and tradition. However, with the abundance of food comes the challenge of dealing with the leftovers. Instead of throwing away excess food, we have mastered the art of transforming leftovers into innovative and delicious dishes. A notable example of this culinary creativity is the transformation of leftover rotis into mithais (Sweets). Sounds impossible, right? Read on to know more. In this viral video doing the rounds online and shared by the page @taste.thee.best, we see a man taking a pan of hot oil and frying leftover rotis in it until they are crispy and golden brown. He then breaks the fried rotis into tiny pieces and grinds them into fine crumbs using a blender.

Next, he caramelized sugar in a pan over medium heat, stirring constantly until it turned a golden brown color. Then he added milk to the pan and stirred until it formed a smooth paste. Next, he added the previously ground rotis to the mixture and stirred until he got a smooth paste. He spread the mixture on a tray lined with greaseproof paper, allowed it to cool and cut it into square pieces, creating stunning roti milk cakes.

However, not everyone was impressed by the inventor’s innovative recipe.

One user commented: “Can someone give him another name, you are robbing the milk cake of its respect.”

Another user quipped: “Brother invented Atte (flour), wow.”

Some users even made sarcastic suggestions such as: “It is better to eat sugared bread wrapped in milk.”

However, amidst the criticism, one user offered some constructive advice, pointing out two “hidden” processes in the video. “First, we eat it with salt and pepper after frying it in oil or ghee. Second, we take the bread pieces without frying them by hand or a grinder and then mix ghee and sugar in a pan. It becomes churma.”

They even added that both methods were delicious.
