    #SandwichSeries - Season 2 - Episode 3 - Vada Pav
    Welcome back to the third episode of the sandwich series! I am doing the highly requested vada pav. It is a street food staple in India that is carb heavy (who doesn't love carbs?) so it can fuel you throughout the day. It's packed with tons of different flavors coming from the three different chutneys all stuffed into a super soft butter roll. But before I make everything from scratch I head over to Desi Galli to get a behind the scenes look on the key ingredients that make this sandwich special.

The biggest honor you can give to a dish is to not change it, because that implies it's already perfect.

    One small detail: Most hawkers add a pinch of baking soda to the batter just before frying and beat it, which makes the batter froth. When vadas are fried with such batter, it forms a thicker but foamy cover, and the vada tastes a little milder. If we don't add the baking soda, the vada gets a thinner cover, but it has more intense taste. Both versions are popular in different regions.

    If onions are too strong for you u can use shallots but add them to the final assembling bcoz it completely changes the taste.

    I'm 20 yrs old and like every other mumbai youngster I'm a hugeee vada pav lover. I've made vada pav at home around 25-30 times. If u don't mind I'll give u some tips...
    1) after ginger garlic paste u also need to add finely chopped green chillies
    2) adding salt in potatoes stuffing is important
    3) once the potatoes are done let it cool down and don't forget to add some lemon juice as it adds alot of flavour to it. And lastly if u have coriander available u can add it or skip it
    Remaining everything was correct. And I appreciate how you also made the pav too

      When I see in some Vlogging videos eating Indian packeted chapaties roti with out mentioning Indian tag on headline it's a fact that Indian food are really popular in Africa continents. There re many African who breaks their fast with Indian staple food like samosha, roti vagi and many more, it is happened due to our people live in those countries and adopt those food in their culture. It's good that we influence many countries by movie and vegan food. There are clever guys who mention india to get viewed their channels. It's king of okay.

    U know what I like about westerns cooks is there precision, attention to detail n exact techniques that they employ that is so much easier for a viewer to grasp while watching n learning. As an Indian myself n loving to cook, even I had never realised these methods that u showed to thicken the chutney, to make the pavs n the heavenly dry garlic chutney. It seems as Indians we don't really put that much effort into exactness n precision, we reply more on our feelings n tasting and thus fail to replicate something exactly. As Asians we r blessed with certain skills that help us sail.

      What you just said about "western cooks" only apply to the best like this guy. Most western cooks are absolutely shitty.
      Btw, Vada Pav is a street dish. Ofcourse you won't see it made like a 5-star chef. That's like eating schezwan noodles on the street and saying people don't put enough effort. Eat it at right places, this guy learned it from Indians so obviously someone did put effort into "exactness and precision".

Two things I'd like to say is, you didn't toast your bun and not toasting the bun is authentic vada pav and the other thing is in the chickpea flour batter (Besan) we add salt, turmeric, chilli powder. That's why your vada didn't get the color it should have. Apart from that it was just PERFECT! 👏

In India, Tamarind is primarily used in the South with vegetarian dishes (which is 80-90% of our meals) and the minimum age of the used Tamarind is atleast 1 year. So if you want a deeper flavor (tangy and umami), get some Tamarind and keep it for a year or two! You will love it!!
