Steps

  1. 1

    Boil the green peas and cauliflower or cabbage, then set aside. Make a paste of tomatoes and green chilies. Also, prepare a paste of garlic and ginger.

  2. 2

    Heat butter in a pan. Add the finely chopped onions and sauté until golden brown. Add the ginger-garlic paste and cook for a minute. Add the bell peppers and cook until they soften. Add the tomato-green chili paste and cook until the oil separates. Stir in all the spices and pav bhaji masala, mixing well.

  3. 3

    Add the boiled potatoes, peas, and cauliflower. Add salt and mash the mixture thoroughly for at least 5 to 7 minutes. Add 1/2 cup water (about 120 ml), cook for 5 minutes, and add a little more pav bhaji masala. Squeeze in lemon juice and add 2 tablespoons butter. Mix in chopped cilantro.
