I’m a big fan of bell pepper and I love them the most in my Pizza. I love to have even a bell pepper stir fry or a reshmi paneer curry with some phulkas. I made some bell pepper chutney today which I had with some Kuzhipaniyaram. Its an easy recipe and you can relish it with any dosa, idli, pongal etc.

How wonderful. I didn't know you could use dal in chutney, but of course, it thickens the mixture.
