A beloved Mumbai street food, pav bhaji is a thick, spiced vegetable mash served with soft butter-toasted bread rolls. The bhaji is a medley of potatoes, tomatoes, peas, capsicum, and other vegetables mashed together and cooked with a generous amount of butter and the distinctive red pav bhaji masala. Originally created as a quick midnight meal for Mumbai's textile mill workers, it has become one of India's most popular street foods.
