The video was shared by Twitter user Deepak Prabhu (@ragiing_bull), who simply captioned it "#matkadosa." It was originally an Instagram reel created by a vlogger (@gluttony_person). It shows the step-by-step method of a man making the dosa - he first sautes veggies and seasons them with chaat masala, ketchup, soy sauce and more. He adds what seems to be paneer pieces and stir-fries the ingredients some more. Separately, he drizzles mayonnaise across the opening of a small matka. He adds shredded cabbage and cheese too. He then begins making the actual dosa on a tawa. He adds fillings and grates a lot of cheese on top. In the end, he makes a cone shape of the dosa and places it, corner-downwards, into the matka. Watch the full video below:

Wait, What? US Man Arrested For Slapping Woman In Face With Pizza Slice

When it comes to news, there is no dearth of bizarre and entertaining content out there. We have seen so many hilarious stories from across the world pop up on our news feed. While some of these make us smile, others simply make us wonder how and why such things happen in the first place! Recently, one such anecdote popped up on our social media feed making us roll with laughter. A man from Florida, US was arrested after he slapped a woman in her face with a pizza slice!

Yes, you read that right. A 39-year-old named Ortelio Lazaro Alfonso was arrested after he had an argument with a female victim. Believe it or not, he told authorities that he had a heated debate and he slapped her with a slice of pizza on her left cheek after a domestic feud. Marion County Sheriff's Office reported that he threw the pizza at her and it struck her in her face. "The defendant advised he did not physically strike the victim with his hands, just with the pizza," deputies wrote in the affidavit, according to Fox News.

Authorities also found pizza sauce in the walls and ceilings of the kitchen. Alfonso was then detained in the Marion County Jail, charged with battery and released later after his own cognisance.

Harsh Goenka Tweets About Traditional Indian Thalis, Leaves Everyone Guessing The Cuisines

India's diverse regional cuisines have always attracted people across the globe. Indian food, as a whole, offers a range of flavours, aromas and taste sensations that are unmatchable. Each and every state or region, so to say, is blessed with authentic local dishes that are an integral part of the lives of local residents. These dishes are vibrant, interesting and unique. One should never miss a chance to chomp on authentic traditional thalis from different parts of the country. And that is exactly what industrialist Harsh Goenka did recently. He shared a post on Twitter featuring four pictures of different thalis he relished from various states. Furthermore, he asked fellow Twitter users to identify the cuisines.

For the caption, Harsh Goenka added, “Recent thalis I have relished. All from different parts of our country. Let's see how many of these cuisines you can identify!”  

The first one resembles Sindhi food with a whole lot of traditional treats. The second thali shows drool-worthy Kashmiri delicacies. A sumptuous preparation of lotus stem or kamal kakdi was common among the two cuisines. The third one is Himachali including yummy arbi ke patte ke pakode also known as Patedu, patrode or patoru among other things. And, the last picture showed a scrumptious Maharashtrian thali with missal pav, masala bhaat, moth beans along with other dishes. The post received many reactions from foodies out there. Everyone seems to have had fun identifying the cuisines from different parts of the country.

Some people identified the cuisines this way: “A - Sindhi B - Kashmiri C - Gujarati D – Maharashtrian”

One user wrote, “1. Sindhi 2. Not sure 3. Gujarati 4. Marathi.”

Some users were absolutely right in their identification. “A: Sindhi B: Kashmiri C : Himachali D: Maharashtrian Kamalgatta is common in Sindhi & Kashmiri”

Tempted by so much food, a user wrote, “Harshji, reduce the tension… do tell the name of restaurants and city”

Another user mentioned, “Not at all interested in identifying cuisines, rather interested in relishing along with you. You should have once a month community (as in societal) langar and invite some of us. Otherwise, it doesn't make sense.”

“Sir I can identify several of the items, but the problem is I can't write because right now I am having my dinner thali ( bhindi fry + toor daal + desi chicken fry and garlic pickle) and believe me it is so yummy,” read another comment.

Someone wrote, “Good morning! Indian food surely has variety and taste incomparable. Early morning having a good look brought up the fantastic tastes of the thalis. Decided to enjoy that rather than concentrate on identifying.”

Many users also shared pictures of different cuisines in the comment section. Were you able to guess the thalis correctly?
