Capsicum stew – Capsicum korma – Bell pepper stew – Capsicum kurma – Simple side dish recipe – Simple curry recipe – Simple gravy recipe

My kids love Capsicum. When I was young my mum didn’t use that much capsicum in her cooking. I really love the flavour of capsicum. We get tri-color capsicum in Singapore almost every day. This is one vegetable you can literally make pretty much any dish.  This korma / stew is really goes well with rice, roti, Naan or paratha.. It goes well with even bread. Now over to the recipe
