London: The Guinness world record for the largest samosa has been smashed by a 153 kg gigantic version of the popular Indian tea-time snack prepared at a mosque.
The enormous snack was made by a 12-member team of Muslim Aid volunteers at the East London Mosque on Tuesday.
After Guinness World Records officials approved their feat, the team distributed the gigantic samosa,
that took over 15 hours to make, to homeless people around Whitechapel.
The previous record for the world's largest samosa was of 110.8 kg set by Bradford College in northern England in June 2012.
A Guinness World Records spokesperson was quoted by the Evening Standard as saying that, "This is an impressive achievement by Muslim Aid and a lot of
hard work and determination has gone into this attempt to ensure its success."
