Capsicum stir fry is a quick recipe, which involves frying capsicum with onion and sprinkling over with spices and peanut powder. Besides peanut powder, using sesame seeds and Channa dal powder, enriches the taste of the recipe.

This crunchy capsicum stir fry goes well as a side dish for roti or rice. After my first experiment with this curry, it became my favourite recipe. It also goes well as side dish with sambar or rasam.

For additional richness, you can also add cashew nuts. For kids, it is a very healthy recipe because we are using peanuts, Channa dal and sesame seeds.

You can also try potato (aloo) fry recipe and broccoli stir fry recipe
