STEP BY STEP
Vada Pav is an Indian version of a burger! Mumbai, the economic capital of India, is famous for its spicy street food but Vada Pav is its most famous and popular food. This delicious dish is made from deep-fried batata vada (mashed potatoes coated in a batter) which is stuffed in a pav. It is served with green chillies and dry and spicy garlic chutney.
You can eat Vada Pav anytime but in the rainy season, there is nothing better than eating hot Vada Pav with steaming hot adrakwali chai.
