This dish actually makes a complete meal and one that takes very little cooking.

You can also have just the ragda topped with the onion and chutneys with pav instead of the pattice.

Recently I had made it for my son’s birthday and it was super hit with kids as well as grown ups.

Pattice can be made a day prior and stored in refrigerator,fry just before serving.
