With loads of veggies, sprouts and tongue-tickling pav bhaji masala, the bhaji is a perfect match for butter-roasted ladi pav. Cool the bhaji and the pav completely and pack them as suggested in the recipe, to ensure that they remain fresh and tasty at lunch time.
Pack some Mint Chaas in a thermos flask, to cool off after the chatpata Pav Bhaji treat.

Pav Bhaji..a yummy and everyone''s favourite. This recipe is best for a kids tiffin, as so many veggies are mashed together. The garlic chilli paste can be prepared a day before and refrigerate it. A must try recipe.
