Kanda Bhaji Pav or Mumbai Style Kanda Bhajji Pav is a popular Mumbai Street Food. Battered thinly sliced onions deep fried and served as pav sandwich with spicy chutneys make a sinful dish anytime!

Mumbai Style Kanda Bhajji Pav is a Pav stuffed with hot spicy onion bajji. It has green chutney and garlic chutney applied on both sides. This Pav Sandwich is one of the popular Mumbai Steet Foods. When I planned for the Thali Mela, I picked up the Street Food theme for a week. Obviously I couldn't miss featuring the famous Mumbai Street Food.

We love Onion Bajji and having it sandwiched in a pav is heavenly! Monsoon means Bajiis or Pakoras and Onion Pakora is the easiest one you can make. Kanda is Onion in Marathi. Same as the rest of the Indian States, Kanda Bhajias are popular in Maharashtra as well.

I love Onion Pakoda and eating it in different forms makes it so delicious. the Lasun Chutney lived up to its name by being spicy and so garlicky! The garlic chutney can be stored for over many months and yet it was so good.
