In Malaysia, one name reigns supreme in the kitchen: Khairul Aming. His recipes are the holy grail for home cooks, and his step-by-step videos make even the most complex dishes seem effortless. But as one woman hilariously discovered, following a recipe is one thing executing it is another story entirely!

A short but side-splitting TikTok clip posted by user @nazmiera10 captured a moment that left the internet in stitches. The video kicks off with the ever-charismatic Khairul Aming demonstrating how to prepare sambal for ayam gepuk using a traditional stone mortar and pestle. Simple enough, right?

Well, not for this home cook. In the next scene, her attempt takes a wildly unexpected turn the mortar splits clean in half! Instead of a perfectly blended sambal, she ends up with crushed chilies artfully scattered across the broken stone.

The clip, which has garnered over 3.1 million views, sent netizens into a frenzy of laughter, with many poking fun at the OP's sheer "strength" in the kitchen. Even Khairul Aming himself chimed in, humorously questioning, "What's wrong with this year's batch?"

This isn't the first time the beloved content creator has seen his recipes go off the rails. He's no stranger to watching his fan's cooking mishaps, even compiling a montage of kitchen fails from those who've attempted his dishes with, let's say, less-than-successful results.

Whether it's a perfectly executed sambal or a mortar-shattering disaster, one thing is certain Khairul Amings recipes will always be a source of delicious inspiration (and, occasionally, unintentional comedy)!
