Pav Bhaji... Made with leftovers and a wild imagination :)

You know how they say that some food items taste better the next day????

All the masalas have beautifully infused with the veggies and the food naturally becomes more aromatic & flavorsome :)

And you know how they also say that having to cook at home on a Sunday is just WRONG!!!!!

Monday blues have begun setting in, and all you really wana do is curl up and have a hot cuppa cocoa..

Given this scenario, how do you really manage to fork out a lovely dinner???

Now we Indians have created some fabulous dishes from leftovers.. and the laziness to actually cook a whole meal from scratch....

The items that top the list are; Stuffed Parathas, Bishebele Bhaat etc....

But the all time favorite remains the good old Pav Bhaji!!!!

So I had these two lame ass sabjis staring at me from the refrigerator..

Probably the worst Sabjis ever: Cabbage and French Beans.. YUCK!!

Take a look...

Spoiler alert: These two scary looking monsters are going to turn into some fantastic finger licking Stuff!!!

So lets get started then...

What you will need:

• Left over sabjis
• Two Onions, Diced
• Two Tomatoes, Diced
• 3 Cloves of garlic, Bashed and diced
• Pav Bhaji Masala, 3 tea spoons
• Salt & Sugar to taste
• One dollop of butter
• Pav (Buns)

Step 1: Saute the Onions in vegetable oil

Tip: Add half a tea spoon of salt here.. It will add a beautiful flavor to the final product

Step 2: Saute the Garlic

Step 3: Mash in the Tomatoes

Toss the tomatoes for a minute

Then Start mashing this tomato, onion & garlic mixture into a thick lumpy & smooth mixture

Step 4: Add the Pav Bhaji Masala

Add half a cup of water and continue bashing for another minute...

Till it looks like this...

Step 5: Mix in the left over Sabjis

 Continue bashing till you get a lumpy yet smooth consistency

The final Magical touches:

• Add one Dollop of Butter
• 2 tea spoons of sugar - this will away any kind of tartness in the food
• Just a pinch of salt, if needed, to balance the flavor

Cover the pan with a lid & switch off the gas.. This will allow the steam to infuse all the flavors

Step 5: lightly toast the Pav (Buns) in butter

And there you have it!!

Lovely, delicious & oh so beautifully fragrant Pav Bhaji!!
