Colored Capsicum Curry (No Onion No Garlic)

Colored Capsicum Curry (No Onion No Garlic)

I make this curry often mimicking my mom's version of capsicum curry. I am sure my mom makes this curry with the regular green capsicum and eggplant. I found that this curry is suitable for those festival days and also for parties as this looks colorful on the buffet table!

For Day 3 of Week 1 of BM #31, here is the recipe..


Colored Capsicum Curry (No Onion No Garlic)

Ingredients - 

Yellow Capsicum, cubed 1 cup
Orange Capsicum, cubed 1 cup
Red Capsicum, cubed 1 cup
Turmeric 1/4 tsp
Salt as needed
Seasoning (Oil 1 Tbsp, Chana Dal 1 tsp, Urad Dal 1 tsp, Mustard seeds 1/2 tsp, Curry leaves few)

Coriander seeds, Roasted 1 tsp

Colored Capsicum Curry (No Onion No Garlic)

  10. I like peanut gravy/ powder with capsicum/ peppers -- nuttiness goes very well with the sweet and spicy peppers.. This is a perfect curry for any day and even to entertain.
