With restaurants closed (at least until June 8) and all of us spending more time in the kitchen, food experiments were bound to happen. And sure enough, we’ve been channeling our creative energies while cooking by trying different ingredient combinations and adding desi masale to spice up bland dishes.
But how far can we really go in the pursuit of a brand new recipe? Apparently quite far, as evidenced by ketchup on watermelon and now, Maggi Pani Puri. Twitter user Bunny who describes himself as a ‘noob cook’ tried the latter yesterday.

Needless to say, people didn’t think it was very appetizing. Some called it a hate crime and others said it was worse than the year 2020!

This…feels wrong? And yet I’m also amazed that this hasn’t happened before.

But the creator himself quite liked the bizarre combination. Take a look.
It tastes good though.

We’ve tried adding eggs to Maggi and making Maggi pakode but can’t fathom ruining gol gappe like this. Are you brave enough to give it a try?
