Pav bhaji recipe with step by step photos. Learn how to make authentic mumbai pav bhaji recipe with this easy recipe today.




Pav bhaji is our most favorite among many Indian street food recipes and I always prefer to make pav bhaji with homemade pav. The pav we get in shops or bakeries are not up to the mark and making pav at home is really easy. I shared the recipe of homemade pav last week and a part of it was made into pav bhaji. Though pav bhaji is Mumbai street food, it is loved widely across the country. I have tasted pav bhaji in many places, some would be very good and some would be so so.




To make pav bhaji recipe use good fresh vegetables. Potatoes, cauliflower, carrot, green peas are added to pav bhaji gravy. Onions, tomatoes and green pepper are also used. I like to use mdh or badsaah pav bhajai masala powder. To quickly make pav bhaji recipe I steam or pressure cook the veggies and on the other stove I cook onion, tomatoes and bell peppers. By the time the vegetables are cooked and mashed, I have the onions and tomatoes sauteed and bhaji can be very quickly made. Always use butter to make pav bhaji to get the authentic taste, feel and flavor 🙂 and yeah always use amul butter for pa bhaji and loads of it 🙂
