Pav baji is one such fast food that I relished from my childhood days. Bhaji a nutritious masala dish cooked with veggies and served with freshly baked buns makes meal complete. I usually bake pav buns myself at home and don’t prefer to buy it from stores because fresh homemade products can never be beaten by store brought ones. So without dragging too much lets get to the making of bhaji masala !

How to make Pav bhaji masala with step by step images
