Aloo Capsicum

Found a couple of capsicums in the fridge and wanted a subji for our phulkas. Wanted it to have lots of tomatoes too... and so here I made Aloo Capsicum.


Ingredients
2-3 Potatoes peeled and cubed to big pieces.
2 Capsicum cut to big pieces
1 Onion grated (optional)
2 large Tomatoes grated
Oil
Salt to taste
Chilli powder
Coriander powder
Turmeric powder
Cumin powder
Jeera
Saunf

Method
  1. Heat oil in a kadai or pressure cooker. I used my small pressure cooker.
  2. Add jeera and saunf. Once they are done, add the grated onion and fry well.
  3. Once done, add tomato paste, all the spice powders and fry for 3-4 mins.
  4. Add the aloo and capsicum, salt, half a cup of water and mix well.
  5. Close the lid and let it cook for 2-3 whistles. Take care not to over cook.
  6. Open the pan and if you find too much water floating around, let it simmer for a while.
  7. You can add chopped coriander leaves.
Serve with phulkas.
