Paav bhaji masala

Paav baji is a traditional delicay of North India. I do not know the conventional preparation of recipe for Paav bhaji but I have invented my own version of making a masala and this goes well with the taste of our palates.
Here is how I make this

Potato -2 nos chopped
Onion - 1 big chopped
Garlic and ginger -1 tspn each chopped
green chillies -1 tspn chopped
dhaniya leaves few and curry leaves also few

Pressure cook all these for 3-4 whistles with a pinch of turmeric, 1/2 tspn red chilli powder, 1/2 tspn coriander powder and 1/2 tspn gharam masala. Once it is done mash all these to thick coarse paste.

In a kadai heat some oil, splutter some mustard, saunf ( perumjeerakam) , add the cooked vegetables , spinkle some chat masala and mix well.


For the paav bun - I sue the ready made paav buns available in market. Split into two half till retaining the joints and add butter in between, and on sides , roast the buns on tava (take care not to charr the butter) . Serve hot with the masala and a hot cup of tea.
