1/2 tbsp butter

Method

Pierce a fork through the tomato, brush a little oil evenly over it and roast on a slow flame till it turns black in colour from all the sides.
Immerse the tomato in cold water, remove the skin, stem and seeds and roughly chop them.
Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the capsicum also.
Combine the roasted and chopped tomatoes and capsicum and blend in a mixer to a smooth purée. Keep aside.
Heat the butter in a broad non-stick pan, add the onions and garlic and sauté on a medium flame for 1 minute.
Add the prepared tomato-capsicum purée, cheese, milk, fresh cream, chilli flakes, mixed herbs and salt, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 2 to 3 minutes, while stirring continuously.
Serve immediately with brun pav pieces.
