In a display of culinary skills, a Nigerian man has become an online sensation after sharing the results of his homemade samosa and spring roll attempt.
The young man, who goes by the handle @olacutetunes on the microblogging platform X, proudly showcased his first-time efforts at making these popular snacks.
However, the images he shared showed an entirely different outcome, leaving many of his followers both amused and empathetic.
“First time frying samosa and spring rolls Guys how did i do,” the man wrote, accompanied by a photograph that revealed his culinary creations had strayed far from the crisp and soft golden-brown perfection one might expect.
Rather than the soft and crunchy wrappers, the man’s samosa and spring rolls appeared to be burnt on the sides and heavily soggy.
The post quickly gained traction, with netizens flooding the comment section with a mix of teasing and genuine offers of advice.
Many could not resist the urge to poke fun at the man’s cooking mishap, with comments ranging from playful jabs to suggestions on how to improve his technique.
Here are some reactions from netizens:
@harmaneo : “Wow. I thought I saw ponmo ijebu till i read the caption. Don’t ever enter the kitchen again!”
@Ogbeni_Eniola : “You really did well for a first time, there’s room for improvement and you can do better. Well done 👏”
@Sholisea : “This looks like the burn offering Abel offered in the bible 🌚”
@Doughnotman : “Have you been arrested now?”
@Chloecakesndmre : it’s not entirely your fault. I’ve fried them before and it did not give what it was supposed to, it’s soggy inside so you tend to over fry it”
@shevi07 : “Where is the vegetable soup? 😭💀”
