Wada Pav

Method

1. To make a healthy wada pav, heat 1 tsp oil in a non-stick pan. Add mustard seeds, garlic, ginger, curry leaves, green chillies, cabbage, cauliflower, carrot, walnuts, paneer, potato, ½ tsp red chilli powder, ¼ tsp turmeric powder, salt, garlic chutney and a little water and mix well. Cook till well mixed.
2. To make the batter take gram flour, salt, asafoetida, remaining chilli powder, remaining turmeric powder, 1 tsp oil and sufficient water in a bowl and whisk well to make a smooth batter.
3. Divide the wada mixture into equal portions and shape them into round balls.
4. Heat another non-stick pan. Dip the wadas in the batter and place them in the non-stick pan, brush with little oil and cook, turning them often so that they are evenly cooked all around.
5. Slit the wheat pavs into without cutting through, apply green chutney on the inner side of both parts of each pav and sprinkle some garlic chutney. Place a wada on the lower half of each pav, top with the upper half and serve immediately.
