People love to experiment with food! All thanks to these culinary experiments, we have scrumptious dishes like tandoori momos, samosa chaat, Maggi Manchurian and more. But not every food test is successful. In an attempt to combine two dishes, the result may not be as appealing as we expect. We experienced such a moment after watching a video on the internet. A food blogger introduced a new street food called momo paratha, which caught the attention of momo and paratha lovers. Don’t believe us? Then watch the video:
Uploaded by food YouTuber Amar Sirohi through his YouTube channel ‘Foodie Incarnate’, he introduces us to his latest street food invention called momo paratha. Momos and parathas, both dishes are quite popular among Indians, but we have never seen them cross the street, until now! Momos are primarily a street food eaten as a snack and paratha is a fried tawa breakfast dish. Both dishes have their own delicious flavor, but when combined, the food blogger is not very impressed. The video has more than 279k views and 18k likes.

The name says it all, the filling of the paratha is a momo filling of cabbage, carrots and onions, and it is served with momo chutney and mayonnaise. The outer layer is made with paratha dough to create the signature paratha feel and texture. This Paratha momo is for Rs. 100 and can be found in Chandni Chowk.
Momos are a classic Indian street food.
The YouTuber ended the video by recommending viewers to use Rs 100 to eat momos and paratha separately instead of having momo paratha, but he added that if one wants to try something new, momo paratha can spend for them. Even the internet is not receptive to the idea of momo paratha, with one viewer commenting, “Spring spring rolls ke naam pe momo paratha bik raha hai”, while others criticized the taste and texture of the dish.
