Pav bhaji is one of the most mouth-watering Indian street food. Bhaji is essentially a mix vegetable preparation with a texture like that of chunky gravy. It is spicy and tangy and is loaded with oodles of butter on the top. This scrumptious preparation is served with pav (a type of bread) which is again roasted in butter and sometimes a sprinkle of masala and green coriander.

Desi Pav bhaji slider, is a variation of this popular Indian snack. You can give these sliders to your kids for lunch time as they are less messy to eat. Also they make for a quick and tasty breakfast with a cup of masala chai. You can also enjoy them companion with your beer during a football match.
To prepare the sliders, we roast the potato mash along with the pav bhaji spices. We add this mash along with sauted onions, tomatoes and green bell peppers to roasted pav buns. Secure them with a toothpick and serve.

These sliders are yummy and full of flavor. The sautéed vegetable adds to the taste and gives a different texture as well. In-case you do not want to sauté the vegetables just add them raw with a sprinkle of chaat masala. These sliders are just perfect as a small snack.
