Notes

  • Pao Bhaji is generally a high calorie food having around 450 calories in one plate which comprises of two pavs and around one katori of subji. For pavs, I have used Harvest Gold Pavs. @ pavs have around 287 calories.
  • Following table shows the calories of the bhaji. 
  •  
  • The boiled veggies would be super hot to mash, especially during the summer and would splutter. I suggest boiling veggies a day before or the first thing in the morning.
  • You may remove the water of boiled veggies so that they can be easily mashed. Use this water to add later for making a smooth gravy of bhaji (if you like it that way) or to knead a dough.
  • The outside vendors add artificial food color so this bhaji would taste far better as it is made in a healthy homemade way and won't be too red in color.
