Heat oil in a pan and add onions.
Recipe Summary Pav Bhaji (Indian Curry)
I made this after trying different methods over a few years. It all came together so well. The flavor and texture was amazing. You really need to add water at the end and not be scared that it will ruin the dish, it will not! You need a fairly runny consistency for the best pav bhaji. Garnish with fresh chopped tomatoes, onions, and fresh cilantro if desired. Serve with toasted white bread or bread rolls.Ingredients | Mushroom Coconut Curry Indian2 tablespoons oil, divided1 large onion, grated¾ teaspoon salt, or as needed5 cloves garlic, grated1 ¼ cups water, or more as needed2 teaspoons pav bhaji masala, divided1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes2 small potatoes, peeled and cut into small cubes3 tablespoons canned sweet corn, drained1 teaspoon mild chile powder1 teaspoon ground coriander1 pinch ground ginger½ teaspoon lemon juice1 tablespoon unsalted butter, or more to tasteDirectionsHeat 1 tablespoon oil in a saucepan over medium heat.
