Capsicum Masala Poriyal Recipe is a South Indian style stir fry of tricolour bell peppers. Colours play an important role in our food. First you eat with your eyes, and then with your mouth. Everything green on a plate is so dull and boring, until you throw in some yellow or red to make it interesting. These capsicums add gorgeous colour and the inherent sweetness to a South Indian meal. Crunchy, mildly sweet and balanced with simple kitchen spices, this poriyal is quickly tossed together in order to retain the bite and not overcook the veggies. Capsicum Masala Poriyal can be served with a simple weeknight dinner of Egg Masoor Dal and Chapatis.
