Vada/Samosa Pav
My in-laws home in Navsari has some of the best Vada Pav ever. Everyone always tells me their favorite memories from eating at that stall. It is one of the things that Hardik would probably eat any day of the week. My dad is also a huge fan of Bataka Vada and my mom has since become a master at making them. This sandwich is also great with samosa as well. It is my favorite snack from any chaat house and I love the sweet, herbacious, spicy mixture of all the chutneys. Definitely a top ten for me! Ingredients: 12 pav rolls or hamburger buns 12 bataka vada/samosa tamarind chutney…

Bataka nu Shaak
This is for all my Dal Bhat lovers out there. We all know that there is a war in every Gujarati household for kadhi vs. dal. This shaak is the perfect compliment to your meal to help you win over the naysayers. My family hosts Sunday Dal Bhat every week, and our table has seen many friends, family, and visitors come through in the past 10-15 years. It is our family’s go to “welcome meal”. To this day I love a warm plate of shaak rotli and athanu for lunch! It is so easy and so satisfying! I hope you’ll bring this to your table to share with your family…
