Jalebi dunked in mutton, fish sauce in cocktail: Unusual food pairings

Recently, an amusing Twitter thread had us thinking about all the "weird" food pairings that we have secretly fancied. It all began when YouTuber and beauty blogger Jackie Aina, 31, from Los Angeles, revealed that she loves adding mustard to yogurt. She then went on to ask her followers to share some of their favourite weirdest food pairings. A man confessed to 'dipping an Oreo in coffee' and a woman shared her love of 'French fries dipped in Coke.' We decided to go ahead and ask Mumbai chefs about their bizarre concoctions that turned out to be unexpectedly delicious.

No amount of cringe and eye rolls from family members can stop Avinash Saha from eating hot jalebis with mutton curry on the side. He even makes it a point to recommend the pairing to curious onlookers. Some take to it, some don't. "I tell people never judge a strange food pairing, until you've tried it," says Saha, executive chef at Lower Parel's Typhoon Shelter.
