big fan of this green veggie but earlier not able to make curry of it
,was only using it with fried rice , noodles .When my sister made aloo
capsicum masala i was not even eager to taste it as i never thought

it.But when my sister insisted to give it a try and after tasting became
a huge fan of capsicum curry and capsicum masala.I prepared spicy capsicum fry
