5. Arranging Vada Pav
Then slice each pav but not entirely. It should be attached to one end it should be like folding , On the white part of pav apply green chutney on one side and tamarind chutney on the other side . Then apply garlic chutney on top of these chutneys. Place the fried vada in the center. Serve the vada pav immediately with garlic curtney chutney , fried salted green chilly on the side!
As you can see there are multiple steps here and if you don’t have time to do all of these on one day, I suggest making the chutneys in advance. This way, you only have to make the vada when you want to eat.It will Save so much time! The chutneys will not get spoil for many days if you store it in refrigerator .
