Capsicum Korma

This is a pure adoption and test recipe which accidentally resulted in a tasty dish. I was just on lookout of some different preparation of Capsicum... so here is what i tried.

2 large capsicum chopped
1 medium sized onion (optional) chopped
a small ginger piece (optional) grated
2 tablespoon chana daal
2 tablespoon urad daal
1 dried chilli
1 medium sized cinamon stick
few kaju
1 small teaspoon coconut scraped (Optional)
2 teaspoon coriander powder
Mustard & curry leaves for tempering
Salt & turmeric to taste
1 tablespoon fresh cream

Roast Chana daal, urad daal, red chilli, cinamon stick and kaju and grind them (without water).
Heat oil in a wok. Add mustard seeds and curry leaves. Add onions and fry till golden. add ginger & salt and fry for a while. Add capsicum and fry well. Add coriander powder chilli powder,, turmeric and toss for a little longer.

Its time to add the powder made at the beginning, also scraped coconut at this point of time. add pinch of red chilli powder if u like bit spicy. Add 3 cups of water and simmer for a while. You can add a tinge of sugar to give that blend of sweet n spicy.

Serve hot with roti/paratha, naan...
