Steps In Making
- Heat oil and butter on a tawa. Once done add finely chopped onions and cook them for 3-4 minutes or until light golden.
- Now add the ginger garlic paste and cook for a minute.
- Further add capsicum and cook for a minute. Do not over cook them.
- Add tomatoes and salt and cook till the tomatoes turn soft and mushy. It will take 4-5 minutes.
- Now add the dried masala, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, cumin powder, pav bhaji masala, garam masala and mix well.
- Add some water and let the masala cook for a minute. Make sure its not dry. Else the pav wont be able to soak the masala.
- Once done add some butter and fresh coriander and mix.
Assemble Masala Pav
- To toast the pav on the same tawa, move the cooked masala to one side of the pan.
- On the other side add some butter. Cut the pav from the center and place it on the butter. Cook for two minutes or until it gets a nice golden crispy texture.
- Take a tablespoon of the cooked masala and fill in inside the pav and cover it with the other half. Cook for another minute.
- Serve immediately with finely chopped onions and lemon.
