Almost everybody loves pizzas because they are simply so comforting that you cannot imagine not ordering them during a house party or even at your favourite restaurant. For many years now, the Italian delicacy has tantalised the tastebuds of Indians, who have now made it their own. With a variety of flavours including chicken tikka ruling restaurant menus, the boundaries of what can go on a pizza are changing and evolving into something new every single day. 

Most recently the ‘bhindi on pizza’ meme has been doing the rounds, at least among people who are constantly scrolling through food on their timelines on social media. While there are several captions like ‘Let me ruin your day’ and sarcastic ones as well like ‘Top choice for bhindi lovers’, the image has been most likely been generated by Artificial Intelligence (AI), according to meme screenshots. Becoming viral almost instantly because of its very ingredients, it has certainly got many reactions making people cringe but come what may, ‘bhindi on pizza’ is having its moment, just like ‘pineapple on pizza’ did a few years ago, and returns every once in a while. 

Coincidentally, the world observes Margherita Day on June 11 to celebrate the type of pizza preparation that has become a favourite among people. While the jury is still out about the topping and its place on pizza, mid-day spoke to Indian chefs to ask them for other Indian toppings that people would definitely enjoy. 
They not only share recipes the familiar Goan chorizo but also another that includes pizza, with a side of truffle, that has also been going viral as an ingredient, but not without another choice that would certainly blow your mind – jackfruit on pizza.
