- Now stir in the tomato puree, pav bhaji masala, red chilli powder and turmeric, followed by 2 tbsp butter. Mash this mixture and continue cooking at 100% micro power level for 2 mins.
- Cover the pot with a glass lid as the bhaji will start to splatter and cook until heated through, continue cooking for 5 mins. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pav bhaji masala, coriander leaves and chilli powder. Heat again for a minute at 100% micro power level.
- Just before serving, use the remaining 4 tbsp butter to spread and 1 tsp room-temperature butter on the cut side and over the top and bottom of each bun/pav. Heat the baking tray on 180⁰C for 6 mins. Add the buttered buns and toast each side until golden brown, for 4 minutes each side at 180⁰C.
- Spoon the bhaji onto the plate, sprinkle with red onion, coriander leaves, and a dot of butter and serve with the toasted buns and lime wedges on the side.
