12 CAPSICUM TOMATO MASALA

Capsicum Tomato Masala is a dry gravy that goes well with rice as a side dish and as well as with chapathis/rotis.




Capsicum( Bell Pepper) - 3 ( I have used half of green capsicum and red capsicum)
Onion - 1 big chopped fine
Tomato - 2 chopped fine
Ginger garlic paste - 1 tbsp
Chilli powder - 1 tbsp
Mustard seeds - 1/4 tsp
Urad dhal - 1/4 tsp
Cumin seeds - 1/4 tsp
Salt as needed
Oil - 1 tbsp



Wash and cut capsicum into medium chunks(pieces). 

Heat oil in a frying pan and add mustard seeds, urad dhal and cumin seeds... when they pop out add chopped onions and fry till golden brown, next add ginger garlic paste and saute for a minute.... then add chopped tomatoes... press and fry till they are mashed and pulpy. Now add chopped capsicum and fry till they soft and cooked( before they turn mushy and are still firm)... now add salt and chilli powder... mix and fry together for 3 - 4 minutes and serve as a side dish.

if you boil the same with milk and add cashew, badam & Red chilli paste to it, then it tastes like hotel gravy.... :)
