What goes into it
These numbers are worked out from a typical restaurant recipe, with the generous oil, butter and cream restaurants use, so one restaurant's version may differ. This version uses:
- Pav (bread roll): 120 g
- Potato: 100 g
- Tomato: 50 g
- Green peas: 30 g
- Capsicum: 30 g

It finishes at about 330 g once cooked. Sharing it, or leaving the extra gravy, is the easiest way to eat less of the fat.
