    ❤️ About This Indian Sweet Peppers Recipe

    These cute-looking sweet peppers are not hot or spicy at all. They are sweeter than normal colored peppers.

    I have never bought or cooked this vegetable before until my one of friends gave me a bag of these cuties. After trying this recipe, I will include sweet mini peppers in my grocery shopping once in a while.

    When she gave me a bag of peppers, I was confused that how am I going to use it. First I thought I will use it in a salad, but no one at home is fond of salads. Then I searched on google, I found Indira's Recipe (her blog is not found on the internet anymore). I made a few changes as per our taste buds and the end result was just fabulous.

    👩‍🍳 How To Make Mini Sweet Peppers Sabzi?

    1) Prepare the peppers. Wash them really well, remove stems and cut them into rings. While chopping, you can shake off most of the seeds.

    2) Dry roast peanuts, cumin seeds and chilies on medium-low heat until the mixture becomes fragrant and toasted. Remove it to a plate and let it cool down completely.

    3) Add roasted spices-peanuts mixture to a spice grinder along with dry coconut.

    4) Grind it into a coarse powder.

    6) Then add peppers, salt and turmeric powder. Mix well.

    7) Cover it and let it cook for 4-5 minutes.

    8) Then add prepared powder.

    9) Mix well. Again cook for 2 minutes uncovered then switch off the gas heat.

      Lesser chili would keep the sweetness of these mini peppers. It is a good recipe but unnecessarily hot!4 stars
