Food Travel – The journey of the humble pav

Vindaloo, Sorpotel, etc, the Portuguese brought all these cuisine to India, mainly Goa. But there is another Portuguese contribution which many may not even know. It is the humble pao or pav as we know it. And it is from Goa that bread first travelled to Mangalore and then on to Bombay, now Mumbai and became a staple amongst the locals. Initially pav was mainly preferred by Christians in Goa and Mangalore; and kids, in lighter vein teased the bread-eaters as pav-wallas. But now everyone, including households love to have pav with the vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes replacing the age hold rotis which is cumbersome to make, and pav is easily available of the shelf from many bakeries dotted around the towns and cities.

In the busy market, around Kalbadevi area of Mumbai where the cotton exchange was located, Gujarati traders would wait for the cotton prices to come from New York late in the evening; to beat the hunger they would love to have Pav bhaji, pav and mix vegetable. And the Kutchis introduced Dabeli, again pav with mix vegetarian snack. In the early seventies, Vada pav made a quiet entry in Bombay. Batatavada, a favourite of Gujaratis and Maharastrian cuisine was placed inside a pav after being sliced open, with a sprinkling of red dry powder chatni or green wet chatni. It became popular as a Maharastrian snack, and is now available all over, in roadside outlets, handcarts, fast food centres and even in restaurants. It has become the simple and popular local vegetarian hamburger! It is cheap and filling, one can have a quick bite while on the move. The British white bread was utilised mainly to make sandwiches, considered a bit elitist among the common man.
