Pav Bhaji

Pav bhaji, one of the most popular street food of India. Love to have it with Pav or even bread toasted with butter. Bhaji made with the mixture of mashed veggies and some Indian spices will make a magic in your plate. We usually prefer to have it for dinner .Adding butter in the dish, adds up to it’s taste.
