Its been raining cats and dogs out here or should I say horses and bulls!And when its this way, there is an auto response on our taste buds for something v hot and spicy. Dunno how that works out but nature at work and who am I to question that :-)

A North Indian trip is considered incomplete if one doesn't get to taste the wares of those road side stalls brimming with colorful and aromatic chats and pav bhaji. Just memories brings back that 'out-of-the-world' taste. All this rain brought back that need and I knew I had to make them soon.

The recipe is as close as it can get to those from the stalls without the unwanted ingrediants although still a little high on calories. So what! All's fair during rain and storm ;-). It doesnt take a long time to cook and at the same time made a wonderful and filling lunch with the taste trickling down our throats and with rain pouring outside.
