Authentic Indian Pav Bhaji: Spicy Vegetable Curry with Buttery Pav

For extra depth of flavor: Lightly char the tomatoes and onions before adding them to the masala.
Adjust the spice level: Start with less chili powder and add more to your preference. Amchur powder adds a unique tangy-sweetness that balances the heat.
Don't overcook the bhaji: Overcooking can make it dry and pasty. Aim for a slightly moist, flavorful consistency.
Toast the pav perfectly: Use a little extra butter, to ensure the pav rolls are nicely toasted and soft inside for the perfect pairing.
