Posted by Sanchitha Sunday, July 25, 2010 0 comments

For the Pav:
Pav bread - 8 nos
Butter - 4 tblsps
Method: ( this step needs to be done finally)
1. Slit the pav horizontally, leaving about a cm sealed on one side.
2. Toss well with butter in a pan on both sides until it softens well and looks shiny and then add a little bhaji inside.

For Bhaji:
Boiled fresh veggies like Potatoes, Green peppers, Carrots,Cauliflower,Green peas, Tomatoes - about 4 cups
(Whoohoo!!! so many veggies!!! a perfect nutritious snack, i wud say!!!)
Onions - 1cup finely chopped
Turmeric powder - 1/2 tsp
Red chilli powder - 1/2 tsp
Kashmiri chilli powder - 1/4 tsp (i use it for the colour)
Good quality Pav Bhaji masala powder - 1 1/2 tblsp
Black salt - 1/2 tsp
Butter - 4 tblsps


Method:
1. Heat butter ( i actually use olive oil to make it more healthy, but definetely butter gives a rich taste. Your choice!!!) in a pan, and add onions and fry well, then add green peppers and saute for 3 more minutes.
2. Add the tomatoes, until water evaporates and oil seperates.
3. Then add turmeric, chilli powders, pav bhaji masala, black salt and salt and let it sit for 2-3 mins. Please make sure the masala does not brown. You may sprinkle water.
4. Then, add the remaining veggies, 2 cups water and allow to boil well. With the help of potato masher, mash the veggies well. This will thicken the bhaji. Remove from fire after 5-7 mins.

Serving:
Serve a laddle full of bhaji in a plate, topped with onions and coriander leaves with a drizzle of lemon juice and serve along with the pav!!!


ENJOY AND HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!!
