Vada Pav Recipe

Vada Pav is a popular Indian street food recipe mainly prepared with pav bread and deep fried batata vada stuffing. Usually, this snack is also known as Indian burger or Bombay burger as it has been adopted from Maharashtrian or Marathi dishes. Generally, it is served as an evening snack, but can also be adapted for breakfast.

Mumbai or earlier known as Bombay is famous for its fast life, it can also be seen originally in its Mumbai or Marathi cuisine. Most of the streets or any popular and attractive migratory site in Mumbai is filled with innumerable vendors and innumerable fast food dishes. Vada Pav is one such easy and delicious fast food dish, which is full of carbohydrates and fiber.

The Vada Pav recipe is very easy to prepare and assemble and is made immediately and is different from the traditional burger recipe. An important part of any good vada pav recipe is found in its crispness and masala vada or batata vada. These patties are a little different from the traditional alu bonda or vegetable bonda. Originally, batata vada stuffing is made from potatoes without a combination of onions or peas. In addition, it has a strong taste of garlic, ginger and coriander leaves. Additionally, the patties are generally oval in shape compared to the round bonda. That being said, it is not compulsory to come round the boondas because then later it is pressed while collecting.
