1

Take 2 potatoes, 1 small beetroot, 250 g of cauliflower, 2 small carrots, 250 g of cabbage, and 1/2 cup of green peas.

2

Transfer the vegetables into a cooker, add 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 3 cups of water.

3

Cover the lid and cook for 4 whistles on low flame.

4

After half an hour, check the vegetables to see if they are cooked well.

5

Using a potato masher, mash the boiled vegetables together; the beetroot will give a wonderful color to the bhaji.

6

In a bowl, take 1/2 teaspoon of asafoetida (Hing) and add 3 to 4 tablespoons of water, mix and keep it aside for 15 minutes.

7

Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a pan on low flame, then add 1/2 teaspoon of pav bhaji masala, 1/2 teaspoon of Kashmiri red chili powder, and 2 tablespoons of chopped coriander leaves. Sauté on low flame.

8

Next, add 4 chopped tomatoes, mix, add 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on low flame.

9

After 4 minutes, mix it once, then add 1 big chopped capsicum and cook for only 2 minutes.

10

After 2 minutes, add 1 tablespoon of coriander powder, 1 teaspoon of garam masala, 1 tablespoon of pav bhaji masala, and 1 tablespoon of butter. Cook the masala and vegetables until it releases oil and butter.

11

After 2 minutes, add the boiled and mashed vegetables and the prepared asafoetida water. Mix well.

12

Add salt to taste, mix, and cook for 4 to 5 minutes on low flame.

13

After 5 minutes, mix it once more and add 1 tablespoon of butter and some chopped coriander leaves. Mix well.

14

Turn off the flame once the bhaji is ready, and serve with homemade pav.

15

To toast the pav, heat 1 teaspoon of butter on a tawa, sprinkle a pinch of Kashmiri red chili powder, a pinch of pav bhaji masala, and some chopped coriander leaves. Sauté on low flame and toast the pav from both sides.

16

Take the toasted pav out onto a plate, top the bhaji with some butter, and serve it with salad.
