  • ¼ tsp jeera powder
  • 3 tsp oil

  • Now add in the chopped capsicums and add the red chilli powder, coriander powder, jeera powder, salt, and garam masala.
  • Let this cook on a medium-low flame. Stir in between without getting burnt.
  • Saute well till the besan gets cooked and leaves a pleasant aroma.
  • Do not cover and cook, as it will leave water and make the curry soggy.

Notes

• You can add Sambar powder instead of red chilli and coriander powders.
• Tri-colored capsicum can be used to make the subzi more colourful.
• Capsicum zunka pairs well with South Indian and North Indian meal
