Ingredients

Instructions

Start by boiling the potatoes, cauliflower, and peas until they are soft and fully cooked. This can be done in a pressure cooker or pot. Once cooked, mash them together lightly and set aside. The texture should be coarse yet creamy, not completely smooth.
Heat oil and butter together in a large, heavy-bottomed pan or tava. Butter adds richness while oil prevents it from burning. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they turn soft and golden.
Add KBM Pav Bhaji Masala, red chili powder, and salt to the tomato-onion mixture. Mix well and cook for a minute so the spices bloom in the butter. You will immediately notice the rich aroma that signals authentic Pav Bhaji flavor.
Add the mashed vegetables to the pan and mix thoroughly with the spice base. Use a masher to gently press everything together, creating that signature Pav Bhaji texture.
Heat a flat griddle or tava and spread butter generously. Slice the pav horizontally and place them on the griddle. Toast until they turn golden and slightly crisp on the outside while remaining soft inside. The buttery aroma is irresistible.
