I remember this conversation between my mother and maternal aunt, where one was telling the other how to make chaat papdi at home. While I was eavesdropping the conversation, I realized it’s a pretty easy job. I doubt I would have reacted this way had Shashi Tharoor described it to me.  This reminds me, have you seen Mr. Tharoor’s recent tweet that has become the reason for amusement for Twitter users? If not, take a look.

Thiruvananthapuram’s MP Shashi Tharoor has caught the media for more than one reason. Be it the political controversies or his subtle demeanour, one thing that cannot be missed out is his strong command over the English language and most importantly, impressive vocabulary. We hadn’t even gotten over the “exasperating farrago…..” language bomb that he dropped on us and now there’s another mind-boggling tweet to read. 

Recently, the witty leader shared a detailed and must we say, extraordinary description of a recipe of something as simple as bhelpuri. His tweet read, “As received on @WhatsApp. Good for weekend consumption!”. The recipe description starts with the ingredients of this “puffed wild rice” that can be a spicy affair with the addition of the fiery Bhoot Jholakia. Seems like this description would scare rather than tempt the eaters. 

Twitter users have not been far behind in lending amusing reactions. Some are requesting him to describe food items like golgappe and poha, hoping for a witty response while some others like @stylistanu tried guessing the writer of the recipe, stating, “Wish to know who is the original writer of the recipe? I Am sure a seasoned chef. But who”. 

Garnering 2k likes and over 261 retweets, we’ve got something to linger on till we get another interesting read from Mr. Tharoor.
