The "city of dreams," Mumbai, is a truly enchanted place, not only for people who aspire to achieve great things but also for people who are passionate about food. People are drawn to the city because of the cultural variety it possesses, which is fully reflected in the wealth of culinary options it provides. It doesn't matter if you're looking for Muslim, Gujarati, South Indian, Parsi, or Maharashtrian food, Mumbai has a wide variety of dishes to choose from, each with its unique combination of flavors, colors, and textures. One need not worry about their financial situation to enjoy the authentic flavors of some of Mumbai's most famous dishes. Now that you're in Mumbai, take a look at this list of the top 5 food to eat there.
1. Akuri Toast
The traditional recipe for akuri calls for scrambled eggs, onions, tomatoes, red chili powder, and green chilies, all of which are cooked together and then topped with chopped fresh coriander. Even raw mangoes can be used as an ingredient during the mango harvest season when combined with milk, jeera (cumin) powder, curry leaves, and ginger-garlic paste. This dish is considered to be one of the best breakfast dishes in the Parsi culture, and each family has a special way of preparing it for the meal.
2. Baida Roti
This one in particular is an intriguing envelope to look at. A square-shaped ball of dough is used to encase chicken, minced mutton, or even bheja (brain) along with eggs that have been whipped with masala-fied fried onions. This mixture is then pan-fried. Even though they are served with sliced onion rings and green chutney, they can stand on their own as a delectable dish that can be enjoyed by themselves.
3. Batata Bada
A bite of batata vada is an indispensable component of the daily routine for residents of Mumbai. This popular fast-food dumpling is made by mashing boiled potatoes with green chilies, ginger, garlic, lime juice, turmeric, and fresh coriander, which is then deep fried after being dipped in a batter made of besan. The dumplings are then topped with fresh coriander (gramme flour). You have the option of having it served with green chutney, or you can have fried green chilies served alongside it.
4. Vada Pav
The success of the dish Vada Pav, which is considered to be one of the most iconic dishes to come out of Mumbai, is dependent on only two primary components: the vada and the pav, in addition to the chutney and masala, of course. It was Ashok Vaidya who was the pioneer of the Vada Pav, but it was the efforts of the Shiv Sena to project it as the snack of the masses that catapulted it to the superstar status that it currently holds.
5. The Bombay Sandwich
The Bombay sandwich is a snack fit
for Dagwood that is made by layering cheese, potatoes, cucumbers, tomatoes,
beetroot, onions, capsicum, chutney, and other vegetables between two lavishly
buttered slices of white bread.
