Butter chicken, cherished for its rich flavour and smooth texture, is more than just a dish for many Indians – it is an emotion. Made with shredded or chopped chicken simmered in a spiced tomato and butter-based gravy, this globally loved delicacy holds a special place in the hearts of Indian food enthusiasts.
Now, imagine being served an equally indulgent version of this classic during a cake-cutting ceremony. A viral video currently making waves on the internet shows Chef Juliette preparing a butter chicken cake – and it has left foodies drooling.
In the video, the chef layers creamy butter chicken with naan parathas, alternating one after the other. In the second and fourth layers, she adds spoonfuls of rice garnished with the same luscious gravy. Finally, she caps the creation with a paratha and, just like a traditional cake, frosts the entire surface with more butter chicken gravy.
To finish, she adds three candles on top and serves the savoury masterpiece hot.
This video, featuring the creamy butter chicken cake, is a hit online.
A user said, “Idc this looks good.” Another person called the butter chicken cake an Indian version of lasagna. They wrote, “Cake: (Cross emoji), Indian lasagna: (Tick emoji).”
“That looks so good,” read a comment. Someone said, “As an Indian this is genius.”
While one person noted, “This looks phenomenal,” another user commented, “I'm not mad at this.”
