Lucknow, the City of Nawabs, is more than a holiday destination. It's a flavourful experience, especially if you have a sweet tooth. From the royal kesar peda and revdi to the melt-in-the-mouth makhan malai, the city's dessert game is meant to impress. But recently, a food vlogger dropped a video on Instagram featuring Lucknow's famous malai makhan that sparked outrage online. The video shows the confectioners of the Ram Arsey sweet shop preparing malai makhan. First, the malai is spread in a big plate, before it is cut into four halves. Next, the malai is then folded into triangular shapes and soaked in milk.

Once done, the pieces are once again sliced into smaller parts. A delicious mixture of kaju, pista, badam and elaichi is then added to the malai slices before the sides are folded, creating the shape of a pan. But hold up, here comes the shocking part.

To make matters worse, the rodent scutters on the malai and the dry fruits, before the confectioner drives it away. The video ends with the vlogger taking a mouthful of the malai makhan.
