Pavbhaji is one of the most loved street food of India. Utterly butterly creamy delicious spicy bhaji served with butter pav.. it's so good n tasty that everyone loves them. Everyone has their own style n own twist of making this dish.Creamy curry & buttery bun , what a combination 😋. So here is the recipe of my version ☺️
Ingredients:-
2 Medium Potatoes
2 cup Green Peas
3/4 cup chopped Cauliflower
1/2 cup chopped Carrot
2 large Onion, chopped
1 tablespoon Garlic Paste
2 medium Tomatoes chopped
1/2 cup chopped Capsicum
1/2 cup chopped beetroot
1½ teaspoons Red Chilli Powder
1/4 teaspoon Turmeric Powder
1 teaspoon Ready made Pav Bhaji Masala Powder
1 teaspoon Lemon Juice
Salt to taste
2 tablespoons Oil
2 tablespoons Butter
Butter for serving
Chopped Coriander Leaves
Pav Buns, for serving
Method:-
Take all the vegetables listed in the ingredients. Wash them in running water and cut them into small pieces.
Transfer chopped all vegetables and 2 onions into a pressure cooker. Add 1/2 cup water and salt to taste.
Close the pressure cooker with a lid and cook over medium flame for 2-whistles. Turn off the flame. Open the lid after pressure releases naturally; it will take around 5-7 minutes.
Mash the boiled vegetables gently with potato masher or using the backside of a large spoon until little chunky texture. You can mash cooked veggies into a texture you like – with small chunks or smooth with no chunks at all. The texture of your bhaji would depend on how you mashed the veggies.
Heat 2-tablespoons oil and 2-tablespoons butter together in a pan over medium flame. Add garlic paste. Add chopped tomato and salt.Sauté until tomatoes turn soft.
