I wanted to try a different recipe with Capsicum this time as I mostly use chilly powder in my preparation. So this recipe is based on a fresh prepare masala with Tomato, red chillies and cumin seeds. You can substitute capsicum with any other vegetable in this recipe.

4. Red Chillies - 4 (adjust it according to your spice level)
5. Cumin seeds - 1/2 tablespoon
6. Ginger/garlic paste - 1/2 tablespoon
7. Salt - to taste
8. Oil - 2 tablespoon
Preparation:
1. Grind tomatoes, red chillies, ginger/garlic paste and cumin seeds into a paste. Dont add water as tomates will make the paste watery.
2. Chop onions into fine pieces and capsicum into medium dices.
3. Heat oil in a pan and when hot add onions and saute until it becomes golden brown.
4. Now add the ground paste and saute for 2 to 3 minutes.
5. Add Capsicum and little water and cook the capsicum in the mixture by closing a lid. Cook in a medium flme for 10 to 12 minutes.
Garnish it with coriander leaves and spicy capsicum curry is ready to eat. It can be serve with Rice/Rotis.
Tips:
1. To enrich the taste, you can add 3 to 4 strings of coriander leaves along with other ingredients to prepare the paste.
2. You can also add all colored capsicums to make the dish colorful and attractive.
Since the day I read this , I wanted to try it. I made this yesterday and shared with a couple of friends too. It was wonderful with dosa and with rice too. Different than the ususal style.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kalyani :)
The recipe is really good. But most of the menus are just South Indians. Some recipes in North Indian dishes which goes with Roti/Chapati viz. Paneer Items with curry and Gravy will be interesting. I am basicallyn a South Indian settled in Delhi. I shall be too happy to read your new blogs on Sambar Mixed Rice,bissibela etc.
