Red Bell Pepper Chutney

Red Bell Pepper Chutney is a simple and yummy dish. You can serve it with white rice and papad or chappathi or idli/dosa. You can also serve it with toasted bread. Once I had it in my friend’s place and I loved it. From then I have been wanting to make it and finally made it. It came out well and here I am sharing it with you…

Preparation time: 30 mins
No. of Servings: 4-5
Spice level: 3.5 out of 5

Ingredients:

  • Red Bell Pepper – 2
  • Garlic cloves – 5
  • Long dried red chilies – 3
  • Black pepper corns – 1/4 tsp
  • Chopped onions – 1/2 cup (optional)
  • Curry leaves – 2 strings
  • Urad dal or split white lentils – 1 tsp
  • Mustard seeds – 1 tsp
  • Whole tamarind – 1 tbsp
  • Sesame oil – 4 tbsp

Method of Preparation:

  1. Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a pan and add urad dal followed by dried red chillies, garlic, pepper corns and half the curry leaves.
  2. In this stage you can add onions if you want and sauté. I did not add onions.
  3. Now add the cut bell peppers and sauté.
  4. Now add tamarind and allow the bell peppers to cook.
  5. Remove from heat and cool. Grind it to a paste.
  6. In the same pan, heat the rest of the oil and add mustard seeds.
  7. Once they splutter, add the remaining curry leaves followed by the paste.
  8. Heat the mixture until it becomes a thick paste.
