Pav Bhaji Boats!!!!

Ingredients

5 Pav (bread )or dinner Rolls.
2 cups Pav bhaji.
Check out the link to my pav bhaji recipe Pav Bhaji
1/2 tsp chilli powder.
1.5 tsp Pav bhaji Masala.1 extra tsp pav bhaji masala.(Masala is spices mixture.We find it in the stores)
About 2 tbs butter.(salted)
1/2 cup Cheese grated .(Parmesan or Mozzarella or our very favourite Amul cheese.
Chopped Coriander to Garnish.
Onion Rings to Garnish.
1 thin Potato sliced.

Procedure.

Pre heat Oven to 420 F.

Heat oil in a pan.add 2 cups of Pav Bhaji in the pan.
Add chilli powder and pav Bhaji masala(1.5 tsp) and pinch of salt.
Keep stirring the pav bhaji till its dry and the spoon can stand in the bhaji for few seconds.(basically we need to take out most of the moisture so that the bread doesn't get soggy)
Keep aside.
Heat another pan.Arrange the potato slices on it ,sprinkle with some salt and spray with some oil.
Slightly brown the potatoes on both the sides.Keep aside.


Take the bread.Make square well in between by taking out the bread.Leaving 1 cm bread on the sides so that it can hold the stuffing.Don't cut in too deep.
Mix the butter and Pav Bhaji masala 1 tsp and melt in microwave.

Coat the inner walls of the bread and the top with the Butter masala(spice) mixture.

Put it in the oven for 5-7 mins till the bread is a bit crispy on top.
Take it out of the oven.Put the browned potato slice at he bottom of the bread well.(THIS WILL PREVENT THE BREAD FROM GETTING SOGGY WHEN WE ADD THE BHAJI.)
Then add the bhaji.
Sprinkle some grated cheese.

Put it back in oven for 7 more mins or till the cheese melts.
Garnish with Coriander and serve hot.
