Learn how to make Potato Capsicum Masala Recipe
Green bell pepper sautéed in onion tomato gravy. The recipe goes well with rotis or parathas. This is very easy and healthy recipe to make on a weekday meal. This is one of my hubby’s favorite dish. I have not cooked capsicum a lot because I like its crunchiness. The soft potato and crunchy capsicum gives the dish a great flavour. To make the dish look colorful, you can add red and yellow bell pepper as well.
