Bhajiya or pakoras are undeniably the go-to appetisers at any desi party or gathering. While preparing the batter is a fairly straightforward task, the key challenge lies in the deep-frying process, which gives these snacks their irresistible taste. Traditionally made with potatoes, onions, and chillies, people are now finding new ways to reinvent these classics. We recently came across a video of a woman showcasing an intriguing twist on the dish - mix flower bhajiyas! Yes, you heard that right.
Delicate flowers are dipped in a spiced batter and fried to a crisp, offering a delightful combination of crunch and floral fragrance. A video circulating on Instagram shows a woman dipping flowers into what appears to be a besan (gram flour) batter. She deep-fries the fritters until they turn golden brown and then places them on a plate to cool.

Potatoes, cabbage, eggplant, onions?)." Someone else commented, "Why is she overdressed while cooking? I wonder what she will cook next time."
"Not all flowers are edible," read a comment. "Flowers kyu kharab kiye, behan? (Why did you waste the flowers, sister?)," remarked a user. A person said, "What is this joke? Who fries flowers?" The reactions only highlight how fascinating yet divisive this floral bhajiya trend has turned out to be.
