Pav Bhaji (Mumbai Pav Bhaji Recipe) by Tarla Dalal

Pav Bhaji originated in Mumbai. Pav Bhaji is a quick snack available on every street corner.

Pav bhaji is more than a mere snack! it's a quick meal that can be grabbed on the go -- since large potions of the bhaji are made in advance and simply reheated with a few spices before serving. You just need to wait till the pav is toasted to perfection with oodles of butter! hmm, top with the raw onions and tomatoes, squeeze a tad of lemon atop the bhaji, and forget yourself!
