Dal Makhani — a North indian classic, creamy, buttery, soul food for millions. But in India, innovation often crosses over into insanity. A viral video shows a JCB machine stirring a giant kadhai of dal makhani, leaving foodies torn between laughter, disgust, and pure shock. The same giant claws that scoop mud and garbage are now scooping butter and lentils. The internet had one question: “Is this food or road construction debris with gravy?”
1. From Roadworks to Rasoi
JCBs are meant to dig trenches, lay pipes, and flatten roads. Now they’re flattening the dignity of indian cuisine by stirring dal.
2. oil + Grease = Free Combo
Forget butter and cream. This dal makhani might come with traces of engine grease, hydraulic oil, and last week’s sewage.
3. Yamraj’s Canteen Vibes
As one bystander said, if this is the size of a kadhai on Earth, imagine the catering arrangements in Yamraj’s kitchen. Hell’s buffet just got real.
4. social media Went Ballistic
“Oil, grease with gravy is free.”
“Half an hour ago, this JCB was probably cleaning drains.”
“This isn’t food, it’s a health hazard.”
The comments were as spicy as the masala missing in that kadhai.
5. Hygiene? What’s That?
The claws of a JCB aren’t sterilized kitchen tools. They dig garbage, mud, and carcasses — and then, apparently, dal. Imagine the bacteria cocktail in that buttery swirl.
6. The Catering Industry’s Lowest Point
Food experiments are supposed to excite — but this one triggered collective nausea. JCB catering is not an innovation; it’s an insult to public health.
7. Dal Makhani Deserves Respect, Not Bulldozers
This dish is a symbol of celebration in India. Turning it into a construction-site circus reduces a cultural classic into a meme.
🔥 Bottom Line: Using a JCB to stir dal makhani isn’t “innovation.” It’s culinary manslaughter. oil, grease, and gravy may come free — but so do food poisoning and disgust.
