I was thinking of making burgers. So, I thought I’d make an Indian-style burger: the Vada Pav. It is delicious, spicy, and crispy. It is also a vegetarian recipe.
Vada pav is an Indian-style spicy and vegetarian burger. It is famous street food in the Indian state, Maharashtra. Vada pav is a sliced bread roll filled with fried potato dumplings. It is served with different chutneys. It goes well with almost all dips and sauces, whether it is tomato sauce or dry ginger chutney.
To make vada pav, heat oil in a pan. Then, add mustard seeds, cumin seeds, spices, salt, mashed potatoes, green chilies, and coriander leaves to it and cook for some time. Mix chickpea flour, cornflour, spices, and water in a bowl. Make small balls of the potato mixture and dip in the flour batter. Then, deep fry them and place them between sliced bread rolls.
