Indian street food reaches its zenith during the holy month of Ramzan, when any & every kind of roadside delight becomes available. Instead of the hitting Mumbai's usual Mohammed Ali Road stretch, this time we hit the streets in Andheri's Millat Nagar, says Hitesh Harisinghani/Rediff.com.
All the rainbow varieties of Chicken Tikka, marinated to perfection, ready to be grilled before your hungry eyes!
The deep-fried egg pouch, a close cousin of the Baida Roti, looks DELISH!
The combination of chicken and melted cheese over a sigri can never go wrong. We solemnly vouch for it.
A classic juicy Mutton Seekh Kebab being grilled. Ramzan is the season to gorge on this kebab that is made best in these kinds of streetside stall -- succulent, spicy and coal-flavoured.
Alu in a sam? Nah, buddy. Not while there's meat around. It's minced mutton all the way, with masalas, wrapped and deep fried. Gorgeous. Eminently hoggable.
Here's a new one, or at least a different namuna. Tri-Coloured Chicken Kebabs made with minced chicken for the patriotic.
Yet another way to have your chicken keema... Stuff it in rolls and deep fry it. Look at that pic! You can actually hear the sizzle of the oil, right?
Sweet and savoury Dahi Wadas, topped with sweet khajoor (date) chutney and cumin powder, makes for a small refreshing break between endless courses of kebabs. It's no kebab mein haddi.
Ministry of Crispiness: Onions, potatoes, chillies dipped in besan and deep fried become lip-smacking bhajiyas. Eat them garam garam, right out of the kadhai.
For the sweet interlude there's exotically-hued Falooda that will fulfil all your desires and some.
Can any Indian event, festival, occasion be ever custard-less? We love our custards, that distant British hangover we have made our national dessert (Do the Brits eat as much custard as we do?). A droolworthy combo of fresh fruits and custard is a worthy Ramzan meal-ender.
Mohabbat and sharbat? Indeed! Aakhir, there is no sincerer love than the love of food, bhai. A mix of milk, sugar, watermelon and rose syrup, with lots of ice, will cool your senses!
