Parathas, considered a staple in Indian cooking, is a dish people like to have for breakfast, lunch, and sometimes even dinner. Easy to make and absolutely delicious, this dish is usually prepared using ghee or butter. An individual in a Chandigarh dhaba shocked people after he was seen cooking parathas in “diesel”.
A video shared by X user @nebula_world shows how this paratha is made. A man in the video asks the cook named Bablu about what he is making, to which he replies by saying “diesel” paratha. Bablu firsts roll out the dough and stuffs it with potato mix. He then bakes it in a pan. After that, he pours outrageous amounts of oil on the paratha, saying that it is “diesel”.

A second said, “Aren’t there any kind of Food Safety Regulations for street foods in India?”
A third added, “I don't think it's diesel or petrol, but whatever it is, it's definitely not fit for human consumption.”
“People may not be aware, but some companies collect the oil spent from restaurants to repurpose it as lubes and fuel. Higher the tan, the higher the carbon content,” commented a fourth.
"Stop eating outside. If you can’t resist, then only go to some good quality restaurants," shared a fifth.
