  9. Add pav bhaji masala and mix well.
  10. After that pour milk into the pan, a little at a time while mixing continuously.
  11. Keep mixing until the sauce is thick and smooth.
  12. Add salt and processed cheese. Mix well.
  13. Once the cheese melts completely, bring the sauce to a simmer and cook it for a couple of minutes.
  14. Add the cooked pasta and toss well until the pasta is coated with the sauce.
  15. Transfer it to the serving plate. Sprinkle freshly crushed black pepper over the top. Serve hot!
