I swear by this dish. I just loved it so much. The only caveat is that it is a "dry" dish". So folks might have to accompany it with tomato chutney or something saucy else the meal becomes very dry.
The recipe is from my mami (my mother's brother's sister) and she is one of the most wonderful cook I have met.
Here are the ingredients:
1) Sauf - fennel seeds
2) Amchur - dried mango powder
3) Onions - finely chopped
4) capsicum - finely chopped
5) gram flour - a couple of cups
1) In a pan - add oil, and give tadka with cumin seeds and sauf - (good amount)
2) Add onions and let them turn pink.
2b) Add your normal things - haldi, dhania powder etc.
3) Ad capsicum and let it cook.
4) Now add besan(gram flour) and let it cook - Don't add water.
5) Add good amount of amchur to it also.
6) If it gets too dry, sprinkle few drops of water to let it cook. The besan turns dark brown when cooked.
Serve and eat - it is very tasty.
Alternatively - if you have small sized capsicum. You can do everything except step 3 and stuff it in capsicum and let the capsicum cook and serve hot.
