Capsicum Chinese chili


This Dish was an experiment by my mom. And trust me its delicious :)

Ingredients :
  1. Capsicum - 3 big
  2. Onion – 3 big
  3. Tomato – 2 big
  4. Spring onion – 1 bunch
  5. Green chili – 1
  6. Ginger Garlic Paste – 3 tsp
  7. Pepper Crushed – 1 tsp
  8. Chili Powder – ½ tsp
  9. Tomato Sauce – 2-3 table spoons
  10. Soya Sauce – 1 table spoon
  11. Chili Sauce – 1 table spoon (Optional)
  12. Red food colour – 1 small pinch (Optional)
  13. Oil – 2 table spoon
  14. Salt – for taste
Preparation:
  1. Place a Kadai on the flame and pour oil into it.
  2. When oil gets heated up, add the Onions diced (Cut into big square shape), Capsicums diced and chopped green chili.
  3. Add ginger garlic paste into it and sauté for about 3mins.
  4. Now add the diced tomatoes and half of the chopped spring onions
  5. Immediately add chili powder, pepper powder, salt, all the 3 sauces and food colour and saute for few mins.
  6. If you want the dish to be dry then you can serve at this stage by decorating it with the remaining chopped spring onions.
  7. Else if you need gravy then add 1/2 cup of water into it and allow it to boil.
  8. Mean while take 1-2 tsp of corn flour (Maida is another option) and mix it well with 1/4th cup of water (ensure that there are no lumps formed). Add it to the Kadai and mix well.
  9. This is to thicken the gravy. When the gravy is thick enough remove it from the flame and decorate it with chopped spring onions. (If spring onions are not available then Coriander leaves can be used)
