An American chef has prepared a complete Indian thali and has managed to baffle the netizens. A thali is a platter that consists of several dishes in a round plate. From Dal Makhani to Gulab Jamun, the thali consists of everything that an Indian foodie can desire. According to reports, the person had no prior knowledge about Indian food or culture. In order to gain some knowledge, the person started to work with an Indian chef. It took him two years to learn to cook a traditional Indian thali.

The thali consisted of a number of dishes, including smoked lamb Andhra curry, grilled butter chicken with brown butter milk crumbs, Dal makhani, goat milk raita, lime pickle, chapati and sourdough naan and kala gulab jamun.
