In a large pan, heat 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and sauté until they turn translucent. Then, add the ginger-garlic paste and cook for another minute.

Prepare the Vegetable Mix

Add the chopped tomatoes, bell pepper, cauliflower, and green peas to the pan. Stir well and cook for about 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are slightly soft.

Cook the Vegetables

Add the boiled and mashed potatoes to the vegetable mix. Sprinkle in the Pav Bhaji masala, red chili powder, turmeric powder, and salt. Mix everything thoroughly and cook for another 5-10 minutes, mashing the mixture with a spatula to blend the flavors.

Combine with Spices
