Who doesn’t love fritters? Crispy from the outside and a blast of flavours from the inside, ‘pakodas‘ or ‘bhajiyas‘ are one of the much-loved snacks for any Indian foodie. Be it during the rainy season or right after a long day with a cup of tea, pakodas are a one-stop solution for those hunger pangs. The best part about fritters is the fact that they are versatile and can be made out of a variety of ingredients. But little did we ever think that we would come across sweet fritters made out of ‘Kaju Katli‘. Yes, you read that right. A video is making rounds on the internet, wherein a woman can be seen preparing ‘Kaju Katli Bhajiya‘. The video was shared by a user on X (formerly Twitter) with the handle @MFuturewala. The clip begins with a woman, standing with a paste made of besan (chickpea flour). She reaches out for kaju katli kept in a box, dips and coats the sweet in the chickpea flour paste and puts it in the hot oil. While the clip concludes even before we can see the final result, we are still wondering if this is a dessert or a snack. The text along with the clip reads, “Anyone for Kaju Katli Bhajiyas???”
