      Prepare Bhaji Base

      Add 3 tbsp refined oil, 150g roughly chopped onion, 1 green chilli (stem removed), 10 cloves peeled garlic, and 3g peeled ginger to The Upliance jar. The device will automatically cut the garlic and chillies for 10 seconds.

      Cook Aromatics and Spices

      The Upliance will now sauté the aromatics on medium heat for 90 seconds. Then, add 90g chopped tomato, 60g butter, 1.25 tsp salt, 0.5 tsp kashmiri mirch, 1.5 tbsp pav bhaji masala, 1 tsp turmeric, and 1 tsp amchur powder to The Upliance jar. The device will sauté the mixture on medium heat with automatic stirring for 5 minutes, ensuring the spices are well tempered.
