Instructions

  • Alright, fam, let's get spicy and whip up a schezwan vada pav recipe that's going to make your taste buds party like never before. This fiery, zesty, Indo-Chinese twist on Mumbai's iconic street food is a flavor bomb you won't forget.
  • Start by boiling and mashing 4 potatoes—smooth like your playlist on a chill day. To this, add finely chopped 4 green chilies, a teaspoon of turmeric, and a pinch of salt. Heat a splash of oil in a pan, toss in a teaspoon of mustard seeds and a teaspoon of urad dal, and let them sizzle until they're fragrant.
  • Add half a teaspoon of asafoetida for that extra earthy oomph, then mix this into your potatoes. Shape the spiced potato mixture into little patties—think sliders but make it desi.
  • Now, for that crispy golden shell, mix 100 grams of gram flour with a teaspoon of red chili powder, a pinch of turmeric, a teaspoon of baking soda, and salt to taste. Gradually add water until you have a thick, velvety batter.
  • Dip the patties in, coat them like they're getting a glam makeover, and deep fry in hot oil until golden and crunchy. Set them aside to cool—if you can resist munching right away.
  • The star of the show? That bold Schezwan sauce. In a pan, heat a little oil, add a tablespoon of garlic chili paste, and saut until it's fragrant. Toss in 2 tablespoons of Schezwan sauce, stir it up, and let it bubble into spicy perfection.
  • Grab 4 pav (fluffy buns that are the MVPs of this dish) and toast them on a hot pan with a glorious swipe of butter until they're golden and crisp.
  • Spread a generous layer of the Schezwan sauce on each side of the pav, plop your crispy vada inside, and add a garnish of fresh cardamom leaves for a fun, herby kick.
  • Boom—your recipe of schezwan vada pav is ready to serve! Bonus points for extra Schezwan sauce on the side because who doesn't love dipping? Whether you're serving it up for your squad or keeping it all to yourself, this schezwan vada pav is street food magic at its finest, bringing the spice, crunch, and all the vibes.
