"Justice For Chikki": Internet Gives A Thumbs Down To Chikki Chaat In Viral Video

Don't we all just wait for winter to kick in, so that we can relish yummy chikkis? Whether jaggery-peanut, til, or dry fruit chikki, they are truly our all-time favourite snacks in the cold season. Sadly, the much-loved chikkis have fallen prey to bizarre food experiment trends. A clip showing a street vendor making chikki chat has taken the internet by storm. The dish is basically a fusion of papdi chaat and chikki, wherein the vendor replaces the papdi with jaggery and peanut chikki. Going by the text on the video, it was recorded in Surat, Gujarat. The video begins with the vendor breaking the chikki into two halves. Next, he sprinkles crispy aloo bhujia on top of this base. What happens next might leave you stunned. The vendor tops it all with spicy green chutney and lemon juice. Once again he repeats the process with bhujia and adds chopped coriander leaves. He then adds sweet chutney to it. The clip was shared by an Instagram food vlogger with the caption, "Justice for chikki."
