Balloon Bread Is Phulka Returning From ‘Amrika’ After Two Weeks! Check How Desi Twitterati Are Reacting to This Viral ‘Roti’ Recipe Video
Chapati (or roti, phulka) is an unleavened flatbread originating from the Indian subcontinent and staple in India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Pakistan. It is primarily prepared with wheat flour and water and eaten daily. Just imagine netizens’ reaction when they came across their desi flatbread being called ‘balloon bread.’
You call it “balloon bread,” we call it “phulka.” We are not the same bro! But thanks to the internet, we realise we all aren’t so different as we would like to believe. A viral recipe video by a food channel, Cookist Wow, has sparked major interest among desi Twitterati. And you cannot blame them for their piquing interest in it, especially after Indians’ good ol’ chapati (also known as roti, phulka or rotli) is addressed as super fancy “balloon bread.”
Let's check out the original recipe video that went viral and the viral reactions to it. Also, it's funny how the video is about roti and ends with by showing a naan a leavened, oven-baked or tawa-fried flatbread, which is made with yogurt, milk, wheat flour, yeast, maida, atta flour, cooking fat, water! Bahut confusion hai!
