Cheese roasted vada pav

As I mentioned in my earlier post also, Vada Pav is a most most popular street food of Maharashtra. Last month   when I was at my parent's place my sister Sneha took me to one nice food joint to have fusion Vada pav. It is Cheese roasted Vada pav. Earlier I was not sure of the taste but when I took first bite, wow!!! A perfect blend of cheese and spicy hot Vada. Just love this fusion recipe. I have not made this home yet but clicked one snap there to post this recipe ASAP. I think Vada-Pav lover should try this once.
