Digital Desk: Rolex, a popular Ugandan rolled egg street meal, has been added to the Guinness World Record courtesy to Raymond Kahuma, a Ugandan YouTuber, and 60 other individuals who constructed a gigantic version weighing 204.6 kg.
The street food, Rolex, which is simply a fried omelette with a veggie filling inside a soft flatbread, took 14 hours and 36 minutes to prepare, including kneading, frying, and whisking eggs. According to the Guinness website, it also takes a year of planning and a trial-and-error procedure to ensure that everything works well on the day.

According to the website, the record-breaking delicacy is worth the equivalent of two thousand standard rolexes.
72 kg (158.733 lb) of flour, 90 kg (198.416 lb) of greens, and 1,200 eggs were used.
From the preparation and cooking of the dough to the moving and rolling of the humungous finished flatbread, it was not an easy achievement, the website noted.
“The team had to find a way to create a chapati bread that wouldn’t break when lifted off the frying surface, which proved to be the most challenging part of this record. But they did it, rolling the surface with the aid of film instead of lifting the dough. After four attempts, in a testament to resilience and initiative, the team conquered the record title for the largest Ugandan rolex, raising the bar for all Ugandan rolexes!” the website stated.
