Video Of Man Preparing Aloo Paratha On CPU Has Swiggy's Attention

When it comes to cooking, most people wouldn’t consider using a computer motherboard or CPU as their kitchen tools. But a viral video is changing that perception. In the video, Let’s Tech, a popular content creator, showcases an unusual culinary experiment. Using a processing chip on a motherboard, he cooks a bite-sized omelette and an aloo paratha. The man begins by carefully layering omelette mix onto the processing chip with a syringe, allowing it to cook thoroughly. Then, he moves on to preparing the aloo paratha, generously oiling the hot processing chip.

The cook then prepares the dough with stuffed potato paste and rolls it into a small round shape that would fit the motherboard’s processing chip. After putting this bite-sized aloo paratha over the motherboard, he waits till the aalo paratha is well cooked. During this unusual cooking session, the man clarifies that he was using an old CPU for his cooking endeavours and that people should not try this with laptop CPUs. The cook also claims that the CPU was not damaged during the process, it was just a little dirty after the cooking.
