  1. Prepare the Filling

    In a bowl, mix the mashed potatoes, dabeli masala, salt, lemon juice, tamarind chutney, and green chutney.

    Ensure potatoes are well mashed for a smooth filling.
  2. Assemble the Dabeli

    Take a pav, slice it open, and fill it with the potato mixture. Add pomegranate seeds, chopped onions, and coriander leaves.

    Don't overfill to avoid spills.
  3. Toast the Pav

    In a pan, melt butter and toast the filled pav on both sides until golden brown.

    Use medium heat to avoid burning the bread.
  4. Garnish

    Sprinkle sev on top for added crunch and flavor.

  5. Serve

    Serve hot with additional chutneys and a slice of lemon on the side.
