Ladi pav was one of the first few recipes I tried when I was still new to baking breads. This was back when I lived in the US and we didn’t get the Bombay style ladi pav. With pav-bhaji dreams in my eyes, I pulled the the tray out of the oven only to be majorly disappointed by how the pavs looked and tasted. It turned out to be such a mediocre attempt that I never made ladi pav again after that. I’ve made buns of all kinds – plain, cheesy, stuffed etc. but kept away from trying the ladi pav again. Fortunately having moved back to Bombay, we didn’t really have to worry about it since it was now so easily available to us.
