Here are a few fast foods that people are making during the lockdown:

  1. Chick-Fil-A Sandwiches:

Chick-Fil-A is the staple food for every American. Their wide variety of sandwiches and fast foods provide a taste for everyone. However, the lockdown forced everyone to remain at home for quite a while. Therefore, many people started to copycat recipes from their favourite restaurants at home.

Ingredients:

Kosher salt, Sugar, 1 teaspoon powdered MSG (optional), 1 cup milk, 2 large eggs, 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 quarts peanut oil,  2 teaspoons paprika, 2 tablespoons black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, 2 tablespoons powdered non-fat milk, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 4 soft butter-toasted hamburger buns, 2 large boneless skinless chicken breasts, split horizontally into 4 cutlets, 8 dill pickle chips

  1. Swedish meatballs:

The Swedish meatballs are the most popular fast food recipe online during the lockdown. In fact, the dish became trending on many social media websites such as Twitter and Instagram.

  1. Tonkatsu or Chicken Katsu:

Katsu is the Japanese people’s favourite staple food, just like pizza is the American food’s heart. If you have ever been to Japan, you may have noticed Katsu sellers in every corner. Whether you are shopping tirelessly in a mall or simply sight-seeing the fuji mountains, Katsu will be available everywhere. However, with the ban on international travel, katsu’s availability is challenging for its lovers. Therefore, many people are constantly attempting to replicate the exact taste of Japanese katsu at home. Surprisingly enough, some people replicated the taste and modified the recipe according to their liking.

Ingredients:

2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves (8oz) or 4 boneless pork sirloin cutlets, 4 to 5 ounces each, 1 cup all-purpose flour (about 5 ounces), 3 large eggs (thoroughly beaten), 1 1/2 cups Japanese-style panko bread crumbs, Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, oil for frying

However, the lockdown situation restricted pizza delivery in many parts of the world. Therefore, people started making pizza at home and sharing their foodography online.
