Chicken Baida Roti

Chicken Baida Roti

    Baida roti is one of Mumbai’s famous and delicious street food. Baida roti is roti made with all purpose flour/Maida ,filled with Mince meat or Kheema and Egg. Talking of "Baida Roti" without mentioning the legendary road-side restaurant "Bademiya " is really not appropriate at least among the foodies. A visit to Mumbai  isn't complete without trying the succulent kebabs and grilled chicken and not to forget the baida roti from Bademiya. It's one of the best street food you'll have ever tasted.
I am telling this with my own experience. Being an Ex-Mumbaikar ,my husband was and still is a big fan of Bademiya and always use to keep nagging me of not ever tasting the food from the same. But this summer I got lucky and I did make sure to visit "THE" restaurant while on vacation to Mumbai, and sure will suggest to visit the place if anyone gets a chance, Just awesome.

        I have used chicken mince for the preparation but can use any meat mince.
