Vada Pao or Indian Burger

 “BURGER” we all are very familiar with the name and we all love it so much but how many of you like the Indian BURGER. Am I sounding crazy but I don’t think so because the very old Indian burger is VADA PAV. The most famous street food of Mumbai and all over in Maharashtra , and I think this BURGER invented before the English Burger. 

First I had this VADA PAO in Pune, they were so yummy and tasty. And this one easily you can prepare at home for evening snack. Homemade food are always best than the outside food so this one will be a very good option for our kids. And I made some coriander chutney to spread on the bread.
