For Indians living abroad, cravings for familiar street food can sometimes call for a little jugaad. A man in the Netherlands has now found an unusual shortcut for one such craving, using a tortilla to make a bhatura-like dish at home. Visual Facilitation Coach Piyush shared a video on Instagram showing how he turned a regular tortilla bought from Dutch supermarket Albert Heijn into a puffed, bhatura-style accompaniment.

In the video, Piyush explains that making bhature from scratch can be difficult, so he decided to try a tortilla instead. He takes a piece of tortilla and puts it into hot oil in a deep fryer. Within seconds, it puffs up, giving it a shape and appearance similar to a freshly fried bhatura.
The experiment was then served with aloo sabzi, making the meal look somewhat like an aloo-puri or aloo-bhatura plate.
