A video of the preparation of spicy momo chutney has taken the internet by storm, with viewers debating the hygiene of the process. Shared by content creator @foodie_incarnate on Instagram, the video showcases the entire journey of making this fiery red chutney.

In the clip, the creator explains, “Some people are absolutely crazy about momo chutney, while others hate it. Some can’t enjoy momos without this spicy sauce, while some claim it can make you sick.”

The ingredients for the chutney include red chilies, garlic, ginger, green coriander, tomato ketchup, green chili sauce, soy sauce, and vinegar. These are all combined and cooked into a smooth, flavorful paste. The video continues with the addition of corn flour to oil, followed by the blended mixture, and finishes with the addition of salt and other sauces.

However, the video has sparked mixed reactions. While many praised the chutney, with one user commenting, “Favorite thing you ever showed,” others raised concerns over the hygiene of the process. A few viewers expressed their discomfort with how the chutney was prepared, with comments like, “There is nothing called cleanliness,” and “Such a messy way of making it.” One sarcastic user added, “So much hygiene? People will definitely get sick after seeing this!”

Despite the concerns, the spicy red dip continues to be a popular accompaniment for momos, adding a tangy kick to the dish.
