HOW TO MAKE BRINJAL CAPSICUM CURRY?
BRINJAL CAPSICUM CURRY- A QUICK TO MAKE CURRY WITH A DELICIOUS COMBINATION OF BRINJAL AND CAPSICUM
Brinjal capsicum curry is a winner at my house every time i make it. We like it with chapati, rice and sambar or we just mix it with hot rice and ghee. All we need is a papad to complete the meal. What brinjals lack in terms of nutrition, they make up for in taste. Mr.P never liked them before we got married but now he has grown to like some forms of it.
And this Brinjal capsicum curry is one of those forms in which he enjoys eggplants. This is a quick curry that can be made in 15 mins. Make sure you use tender purple eggplants for this. To make the brinjal capsicum curry more colorful, add red and yellow peppers instead of the green ones.
