Method-:
1) Boil the red chillies in a pan of water until they are tender. Drain the water and allow it to cool. Mix the red chillies with garlic cloves and blend into a smooth paste in a mixer. Keep aside. (You can remove the seeds optionally to make this less spicy)

6) Slit the Pav from center and apply butter on the insides and also on outside. Microwave on medium for 30 secs- 1 min depending upon the oven until the pav becomes soft. Take care not to overheat it else pav will become hard.
7) Take the pav and apply the prepared mixture on inside evenly. Close the pav and apply some mixture on top of the pav as well. Cut into 4 pieces and garnish with chopped coriander and serve with Lemon wedges and Onion rings as shown in pic below.
