Pav bhaji the name is enough to make your mouth water. It’s one of the tastiest and easiest recipes to prepare. So today I did not have enough vegetables to prepare the bhaji… and as you know need is the mother of all inventions. I just came up with an idea to add boiled egg to the recipe. And you would not believe me, it came out so good. It is a Lip-smacking variation of the finger licking epic street food of India. I relished it so much and have decided to make it more often now. The addition of eggs also increases the nutrition quotient. The vegetables already provide the minerals and vitamins and eggs give the protein boost.
