This is a spicy blend of vegetables in tomato gravy served with pav that is cooked with butter. I used the normal white bread rolls instead of the actual pavs.
Ingredients
For the pav
Pavs (small squares of white bread)-8
Butter-4tbsp
For the bhaji
Potatoes(boiled and mashed-1 1/2cups
Cauliflower(finely chopped)-1cup
Green peas-1/2cup
Carrots(chopped)-1/2cup
Onion(chopped)-1cup
Capsicum(finely chopped)-1/2cup
Tomatoes(chopped)-2 1/2cups
Turmeric powder-1/2tsp
Chilli powder-1tsp
Pav bhaji masala-1 1/2tbsp
Ginger-garlic paste-2tsp
Butter or oil-4tbsp
For serving
Large onion(chopped)-1
Lemon wedges-4
Chopped coriander-1 tbsp
Method
For the bhaji
Boil the cauliflower, peas and carrots till they are soft. Drain out the excess water. Heat the butter or oil in a large pan, add the onion and capsicum and saute for 2 minutes. Then, add the ginger-garlic paste and saute till the onion softens. Add the tomatoes and simmer till the oil separates. Add the turmeric powder, chilli powder, pav bhaji masala and salt and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the boiled vegetables and potatoes and mash thoroughly using a potato masher, adding ½ cup of water if required.
For the pav
Slice each pav horizontally. Apply a little butter to each side. Heat a large tava and cook the pav on both sides till the pieces are lightly browned.
Serve the hot pav with hot bhaji topped with the onion & coriander, and lemon wedges.
