ABOUT Pav Bhaji RECIPE

I made the pav bhaji masala powder and added it to the bhaji and it was perfect. I thought of making the pav, but time didn’t permit me so I ended up with the store bought pavs. This is a perfect tea time snack and will be loved by all.The bhaji is very healthy and nutritious, as we use all kinds of vegetables in it. I love the smell of butter in both the pav and bhaji.
