New Delhi (NVI): Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison showed off his culinary skills on Twitter today as he shared pictures of him with a tray full of ‘samosas’, the popular Indian snack, all “made from scratch” by him including the “chutney” (sauce).

Sharing the pics on the microblogging site, the Australian PM said that he would have liked to share, what he called “ScoMosas” with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, since “they’re vegetarian”. Morrison also tagged PM Modi in his tweet.

“Sunday ScoMosas with mango chutney, all made from scratch – including the chutney! A pity my meeting with @narendramodi this week is by videolink. They’re vegetarian, I would have liked to share them with him,” he tweeted.

Morrison’s tweet got a huge response from netizens and it also reached PM Modi who responded by saying that the two countries are connected by the “Indian Ocean” and united by “Indian Samosa”. While replying to Morrison’s tweet, the PM said that he would enjoy samosas with his Australian counterpart as soon as the coronavirus pandemic is under control.

“Connected by the Indian Ocean, united by the Indian Samosa! Looks delicious, PM @ScottMorrisonMP! Once we achieve a decisive victory against COVID-19, we will enjoy the Samosas together. Looking forward to our video meet on the 4th,” PM tweeted.

The two leaders engaged in the ‘samosa diplomacy’ ahead of their video conference on June 4. India and Australia are scheduled to hold a virtual meeting on Thursday, looking forward to strengthening their strategic partnership.
