Pav-bhaji dish has a long history and it originated during the thriving textile industry business in Mumbai. The dish was particularly served as a fast food for the textile workers and thus served the required nutrients from the combination of vegetables. Gradually due to the popularity of this recipe, it eventually turned out to be street food served on every corner of the street.
