Dhaba style Shev Bhaji

Learn to make Dhaba Style Shev Bhaji in today’s blog post. Khandeshi Shev Bhaji is a delicious and spicy curry preparation where we add a spicy variant of Shev to the onion-coconut masala. The USP, however of the dish is the usage of Kala Masala which not only adds a lot of flavors but also contributes to the spicy quotient of the dish.

Shev Bhaji is a popular veg preparation that is prepared in a few different ways in Maharashtra. Each household has a slightly different way of making Shev Bhaji. I will replicate in today’s blog, one that is more popular- Khandeshi Shev Bhaji. Traditionally, Shev is also prepared at home but that would make the recipe a bit cumbersome, so I am using store-bought shev. However, I am not making any adjustments in rassa (curry) preparation and have stayed as authentic as possible to achieve- Dhaba Style Shev Bhaji.
