Tava pulav is a Mumbai street side dish which is both tasty and easy to prepare at the same time. Now, its popularity is spread across mumbai and reached all the parts of the country. Basically, as the name suggests, it is prepared on a big concave tawa, but it is not possible at homes to cook in such big tawas and so we cook it in normal kadai or pans. Here, we mix rice with some assorted vegetables and toss them in pav baji masala. Further this pav baji pulav is enriched with the addition of butter. Hence, this rice is rich with butter and it is an excellent tiffin box recipe.
