Puneri Misal

Puneri Misal is a specialty dish of the Indian state of Maharashtra, its name literally translated to a mixture of everything, so the ingredients vary from region to region. However, a combination of these ingredients is the most common in a typical misal: yoghurt, bun, bhujiya , moth bean or pea curry, gravy, spiced potatoes, and garnishing’s such as onions, coriander, and tomatoes.
