Paneer Bhurji stuffed Pav

I saw this at an Indian store and decided to make my own!

The paneer bhurji stuffing is baked into the pav and that makes it an easy to eat, non-messy snack.

Ingredients

For the Paneer Bhurji Stuffing

Paneer - small piece grated thin
Potatoes - 2 medium
Green Chili - 1 small or to taste
Ginger - small piece
Garlic - 1 or 2 cloves
Turmeric - 1/2 tsp
Salt to taste
Oil to saute

For the Pav

Flour (Maida) - 3 cups
Milk - 1 cup
Sugar - 1 tsp
Yeast - 1 tsp
Butter - 2 - 3 tsps
Salt to taste

Preparation

Paneer Bhurji 

This is a kind of dry bhurji since it will be used as stuffing in the pav batter.

Grate the paneer into thin shredded pieces. Boil the potatoes and mash it. In a pan, heat some oil and sauté finely chopped chili, garlic and ginger. Add some spices like turmeric and salt to taste. Add the paneer and also the mashed potatoes to it and mix. If the mix is too dry you can add some lemon juice to it and mix. Once the mix cools down, make small balls of this mix and keep aside.

Pav 

I saw a recipe on the internet and followed it for most of it -> Pav recipe

In a bowl, warm the milk (not hot - should be lukewarm) and add the sugar and yeast to it and keep it aside for 5 minutes. After five minutes add the flour and salt to it and knead the dough well. Add the butter to it and knead again and leave the dough aside for an hour to rise. Cut the dough into 8 or 9 small balls.. Spread the small dough and place the paneer bhurji ball in the center and cover it with the dough and make it into a bigger ball. Place it in a greased pan and leave it for few hours to rise. Bake the pav in a pre-heated oven at 360 degree Fahrenheit for around 20 to 25 minutes or until you see the top of the pav browning.

Enjoy this non messy easy to eat snack.
