Misal Pav

Misal Pav

         

             I am happy to announce that I am part of southern team of  Southern Vs Northern Challenge Which was started by DIVYA PRAMIL of  You too can cook where she is giving an opportunity to each member to learn more about Indian cuisine and diving the members in to two groups as Southern and Northern teams.  Every month, each team will challenge with their own traditional recipes to opposite team. This month MEENA of  Random Ramblings has challenged Misal pav to southern team. Where SHERIN of Kuk's Kitchen have challenged Northern team with Medu vada. 
         Misal Pav is a popular street food in Mumbai and nutritious breakfast recipes too.  Misal means savory mixture and this gravy is mainly prepared with matki (moth beans) but we can alter with different legume like white or green peas or mix of all.

¾ tsp red chili powder to taste
¾ tsp coriander powder
