Fans of street food understand that it's not just the taste of the dish that matters but also how it's prepared that defines it. Many food videos go viral where people who prepare it experiment with different ingredients. However, this time around, a video of a street food vendor preparing a dosa in an artistic manner is doing the rounds on social media. This has impressed not only the internet users but also all foodies who would want to try their hands at this artistic piece.
The CEO of Naandi Foundation, Manoj Kumar, took to Twitter to share the video. In the two-minute clip, a street food vendor is seen spreading the dosa batter on the tawa in a circular manner, trying to make an animal figure. A few seconds later, the man spreads more batter, making another circle, which appears to be the head of the figure. Eventually, as he continues to spread the batter, one notices that the man has actually drawn a cat. He takes a spatula and removes the extra batter to make the eyes, nose and mouth of the cat. He later folds the dosa and serves it with the coconut chutney.
"I believe India's street food vendors are the most innovative, resilient and impactful food influencers. More than any gourmet chef. Been wondering how to work with them to influence a nutritive food system. Please applaud this guy's artistic skills," reads the caption of the post.
