Pav Bhaji
This is one of the simple recipes . Pav Bhaji is one way to sneak some vegetables on kids meals. My son loves breads but not vegetables.So i mash the vegetables very well so he can't identify any vegetables and spread it like jam on the pav.And this trick is been working for me :)
Ingredients:
Mixed vegetables-[carrot,green beans,capsicum,Cauliflower]-4cups chopped
Potatoes-3 cut into cubes
Frozen Peas-3/4cup
Onion-1 large thinly chopped
Tomato-2 chopped
Butter-2tbs
garlic-2 cloves thinly chopped[optional]
pav bhaji masala-2tbs
salt-to taste
Cilantro-3tbs chopped
To Garnish
Cilantro,Shallots,lime.
Method:
Boil the vegetables and potatoes .Mash the cooked vegetables.Set aside.[I pressure cook the vegetables with water for 1 whistle.And drain the water and mash it].
In a pan on medium flame add the butter ,chopped onion,garlic and saute until onion is translucent.Add the chopped tomatoes and saute until tomatoes are soft. Add the mashed vegetables, pav bhaji masala,salt and mix well.Mash all the vegetables with a wooden spoon.Bhaji should be thick and not runny.Remove from the flame , add the cilantro and mix well.
For the Pav
Cut the pav in half and brush some butter on the pav ,butter brushed side down cook pav until it is golden brown.
Enjoy Pav Bhaji with lemon,chopped shallots and cilantro.
