I'm simply nominating this because it may be an unknown and obscure Indian food but all my searches (News, Books and browser) including the simplest searches found absolutely nothing apart from Wikipedia, or else I would've immediately tagged it as G3. I know there's a gap with foreign articles but this existing since May 2010 with no improvement or a shred of evidence is concerning. It's also worth noting images were "added" but never actually existed. @Calamondin12: is welcome to comment. SwisterTwister talk 23:08, 21 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: Very possibly a long-term hoax. The only Google hits appear to be derived from our article. The article is its creator's only contribution, always a red flag in these situations. The reference to Paul Brennan was a later addition to the article (see [1]) but is clearly nonsense. Newyorkbrad (talk) 00:09, 22 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This looks like a hoax: If this dish were indeed "popular in Western Europe," particularly fast food restaurants in the United Kingdom, we should be able to find thousands of reviews, menus, recipes, and similar mentions in various Western languages (it's not just a translation issue). And, as noted previously, the absence of other edits from the article's creator also points toward a hoax. Calamondin12 (talk) 12:29, 22 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete No coverage in independent, reliable sources to verify or sustian article. Fails WP:GNG and as near as I can tell does not exist as an actual, well known, dish. Jbh ^Talk 17:50, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]
