Cookd masalas for eggs
Method
Beat the eggs in a bowl with a pinch of the salt. Keep aside.
Heat the oil and 1 tbsp butter in a wide pan on medium flame. Add the ginger garlic paste and green chilli and fry for 30 seconds. Add the onion and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until soft.
Add the tomato, turmeric powder, red chilli powder, pav bhaji masala and salt. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes until the tomato is soft and mushy.
Pour in the beaten eggs. Leave for 30 seconds, then stir and scramble on medium flame for 2 to 3 minutes until the eggs are just set but still soft. Mix in the coriander leaves and switch off.
Slit the pav in half without cutting through. Spread the butter on a hot tawa and toast the pav for 1 minute on each side until crisp.
Serve the hot bhurji with the buttered pav and a few onion slices or a lemon wedge if you like.
