Instructions
- In a pan, heat the butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onions and sauté until they become translucent.
- Add the chopped tomatoes to the pan and cook until they soften and blend well with the onions.
- Stir in the mixed vegetables and pav bhaji masala. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the vegetables are tender.
- Mash the cooked vegetable mixture slightly with a masher or the back of a spoon, ensuring it retains some texture. Season with salt to taste and set aside.
- Heat a dosa tawa (griddle) over medium heat. Once hot, pour a ladleful of dosa batter onto the tawa and spread it in a circular motion to form a thin dosa.
- Spread a generous portion of the prepared bhaji over the dosa, ensuring even coverage, and allow it to cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the dosa turns golden brown and crispy from the bottom.
- Carefully fold the dosa in half and remove it from the tawa.
- Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves and serve hot with a side of coconut chutney.
Tips
- For an extra spicy kick, add green chilies to the bhaji while cooking.
- You can customize the mixed vegetables based on your preference or what's in season.
- If you want a vegan option, substitute butter with oil or vegan butter.
