Step-by-Step Mumbai Pav Bhaji Recipe

Step 1 – Throw potatoes, carrots, peas, and cauliflower into a pot. Boil ’em till they’re soft. Drain the spare water. Then, with a fork or masher, give those veggies a good smashing. Set them to the side for a bit later.

Step 2 – Crank up the heat and melt like 2 spoons of butter in a big frying thingy. Throw in cumin seeds and wait for that snap, crackle, and pop to happen. It’s gonna smell awesome.

Step 3 – Now for the next thing, you gotta toss in chopped onions. Fry those until they’re all nice and golden. Add in the ginger garlic paste. Cook it for a minute until it gives off a nice aroma. 

Step 4 – Add diced tomatoes. Sliced bell pepper to the mixture along, with red chili powder, turmeric powder and pav bhaji masala.Then cook it until the tomatoes are softened and the oil starts separating from the masala. 

Step 5 – Mix the vegetables with the spices. Put the boiled and mashed veggies into the pan. Mix them well with the spices to get a fusion going on. 

Step 6 – If necessary and to get the texture you want for it to be just perfect; mix it all up. Let it gently cook on low for 5 to 10 minutes so that all the flavors blend harmoniously together. 

Feel free to taste and tweak the seasoning by adding salt or extra pav bhaji masala based on your liking. 

Step 7 – Make sure to toast the bread. In another pan melt some butter and toast the pav bread rolls until they turn golden and crisp from both sides. 

Step 8 – Time to dish out the Pav Bhaji.

Place the zesty bhaji in a bowl. Add a generous spoonful of butter on top before sprinkling freshly chopped coriander, for the finishing touch. 

Tips for Perfect Pav Bhaji

• Veggie Mix-Ups: Try adding corn, beans, or zucchini to your bhaji to make it your own.
• Spice It Up: If you enjoy heat, throw in extra green chilies or chili powder to suit your taste. 
• Don’t Skimp on Butter: Use plenty of butter to bring out the rich flavor and make your Pav Bhaji genuine. 
• Go for fresh high-quality ‘Pav Bhaji Masala’ to nail that awesome flavor. You’re able to whip up your own using garam masala, cumin, coriander, and some dry mango powder at your place.
