Not only has Mumbai taken to its bosom recipes from other states, but also invented dishes of its own. The Pav Bhaji is one such example. The leftovers vegetables from the previous night were used by enterprising restaurateurs, to create a vegetable mash or Bhaji. These were sold on the streets to hungry mill workers, whose odd working hours prompted a street food revolution in the city. This particular dish was accompanied with the Portuguese bread called Pav. This dish with humble origins, has crossed state borders over the years, and has become the most beloved street food of the nation.
