Sounds good! Do you drain any of the oil off or is it part of the liquid? I know that capsicum is a pepper, but what kind of pepper? This sounds very good..


Wow!! Great recipe. I've bookmarked it to try soon. It has all my favorite flavors in it.


According to Wikipedia Capsicum can be anything from a Jalapeno to a bell pepper... What are you using here in this recipe?


I used green bell pepper.To prepare capsicum /bell pepper remove skin top and seeds,then cut in cubes.Shirleyoma,our curries are oil based. You can reduce oil if you want.


Nice recipe...I like simple curries...and this sounds flavourful!


Thanks Ambus - I am such a curry fan, I'll be sure to make this soon. = )


Thanks Sunny, I am glad you liked them!I hope you'll try.
