Being born and brought up in Mumbai, I am die-hard fan of Vada Pav. Vada is a spicy fried potato dumpling which is served with chutneys and pav/bread. I have already shared recipe of Batata Vada. Here I am sharing step by step recipe of how to assemble Vada Pav.
It is a famous street food of Mumbai which now has a global reach. It’s very simple to make and tastes heavenly when served hot. Unlike Samosa, potato stuffing does not contain any spices(masala) or peas etc. The right consistency of gram flour batter makes perfect crispy vadas.
Street vendors add their own variation sometimes such as urad daal or garlic in the potato mixture but basic recipe remains same. Also various chutneys like dry garlic chutney, green chutney, sweet chutney etc are used while serving vadas..
