Misal Pav









Misal Pav is one of the tastiest dishes I have ever tried. It is basically from Maharashtra. It has  Kolhapur, Pune, Mumbai versions. it consists of a curry of sprouted moth beans which is then mixed by Sample which is spicy water. Then it is topped by onions, cilantro, potato, chiwda, farsan, lemon.

Actually Sample word is only used in Pune. in other places it simply called Rassa. which means soup or runny curry.

To any one from east India...nothing ( not even Alphonso), matches langda...

The Himsagar variety scores a dozen against Langda anytime, and even against Alfonso!
