On Friday, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese visited Little India in Harris Park, where he sampled chaat and jalebi and other popular Indian street foods. While in Australia this month, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi praised these dishes. The 'Little India' was officially inaugurated last month by Modi and Albanese at Sydney's Qudos Bank Arena. Harris Park is famous for its Indian restaurants and is home to a sizable Indian population.  

While sharing a post and tweets about his visit to the station, Anthony Albanese wrote, “Great Friday night in Little India, Harris Park with @Charlton_AB. We tried out Prime Minister @narendramodi 's recommendations of chaat at Chatkazz and jalebi at Jaipur Sweets - a winner!”  To which Prime Minister Modi replied, " Sounds like a memorable Friday night, imbibing the best of Indian culture and culinary diversity. A winner indeed, like the India-Australia friendship." Last month, while in Australia, Modi spoke at a public event in Sydney. During his speech, he mentioned the Chatkazz 'Chaat' and 'Jalebi' from Jaipur Sweets at Harris Park, saying, "I've heard that they're very delicious." I want you to bring the Prime Minister of Australia, Albanese, there.

In the video, we could see Anthony Albanese, Andrew Charlton and some other delegates taking a bite of the lip-smacking hot jalebis and relishing its flavors. Not just this, the platter of chaat also looks mouthwatering. We don’t want to miss mentioning that Indian food is well-known for its deliciousness, diversity, and use of fragrant spices. The Indian delicacy jalebi is a symbol of the country's sweet tooth. The deep-fried, syrup-soaked sweet treat known as jalebi has a prominent role in many Indian celebrations. While Indian chaat is a well-liked street meal that is renowned for its bold flavours, sour condiments, and crunchy ingredients. 

Whether eaten on its own or with a dollop of rabri (reduced milk) or yoghurt, jalebi is best eaten hot and fresh off the pan. You can find this popular snack at any number of roadside booths or confectionery shops in India and now across the globe. Its sweet and slightly tangy flavour makes it a hit with consumers of all ages. Diwali, Eid, and Holi are just some of the many celebrations where jalebi makes an appearance. 

However, in every corner of India, you may find a unique take on the ubiquitous chaat. Pani puri, bhel puri, aloo tikki, papdi chaat, and dahi vada are just a few of the most well-liked varieties. Chaat is a fascinating snack because of the wide range of flavours and textures it encompasses.
