This Pav Bhaji Khakhra is quite an off-beat snack. It might not taste like regular khakhras because it does not have oil, but it tastes fabulous in its own special way, with the peppy flavour of pav bhaji masala.
This healthy and chatpata snack can be carried along anywhere, to office or even on a journey, so you can munch on something healthy whenever you are hungry.
