Vada Pav Recipe

Add the crushed ginger-garlic-green chili

Cook for one minute until the ginger and garlic starts changing color.

Now add the boiled potatoes and remove pan from heat

Add turmeric, salt and mash the potatoes using a potato masher.

Now make lemon sized balls out of the potato mixture. 

 I was able to get 10 of these. Set these aside.

Make the batter

To make the batter, take besan in a large bowl. Add turmeric, salt and pinch of baking soda to it.

Start adding water, little by little to the bowl

Whisk to form a smooth batter. You may need couple of extra tablespoons of water to reach a desired consistency. The batter should neither be thick nor thin.

Fry the vada Heat oil in a kadai/wok on medium-high heat. Dip each potato round into the batter, coat it from all sides.

Assemble the vada pav To assemble the vada pav, toast the pav with some butter on a pan.

Then slice each pav but not entirely. It should still be attached at one end. Apply green chutney on one side and tamarind chutney on the other side of the pav. Then apply garlic chutney on top of these chutneys.
