ABOUT Vada Pav RECIPE

This is a very popular Mumbai street food and is found almost in every street corners and in small eateries. It can be served as a tea-time snack too. This is a simple, humble and an equally yummy bun stuffed with a vada (dumpling) and served with green chutney, sweet chutney and spicy garlic chutney. I sometimes serve with a sprinkle of some grated cheese. Country.....UAE.
