Rice is certainly a versatile dish. Especially in the winter season, nothing beats the magic of eating a plate of warm and freshly cooked steamed rice that instantly satisfies your soul. It can either be paired with a humble pot of piping-hot dal or some rich veg and non-veg gravies. Apart from that, you can also whip up a variety of items with rice, including pulao, biryani, lemon rice, curd rice and khicdi. But food experiments, like always, have taken things a step further, unhesitantly tampering with the classic grain.

Not long ago, reel creator Swayam Srivastav uploaded a video on Instagram reacting to a woman preparing a chaotic mix of rice. The clip opened to rice being cooked in a pot, but the normalcy ended there. In the next step, the woman took a bar of chocolate, broke it into small pieces and added them to the pot. After that, she cracked open two eggs, which again went into the rice.
Adding to the oddity, tomatoes, along with some puree, were also thrown into the unusual blend. Once the peculiar concoction was mixed thoroughly, the woman poured packaged fruit juice and milk, followed by a generous quantity of sugar and stirred all of the ingredients together. “Khana hai aise ya fekna hai? (Is this meant to be eaten this way or thrown away?)” read the side note.
