Kudai milakai & venkaiya (Bell pepper & onion) chutney

Kudaimilagai & venkaiya chutney - Preparation time 10 to 15 mins

We always end up with similar type of chutneys and sometimes it will be bored to make same chutney. One day I thought of replacing plain green chili with bell pepper in onion chutney. Surprisingly it ended up well. If the spice of bellpepper is not sufficient you can spice it up with additional chili as i did in below one. Actually i tried with green bell pepper first time and next time with red one. Try it out, surely you all will enjoy.

Ingredients:-
Kudaimilagai (Bell pepper)- one (chopped to cubes)
Onion (Venkaiyam ) - one (peeled and chopped to medium size cubes)
Chili (green or red) - 1 or 2 (according to taste)
Salt - To taste
Sesame oil - 2 tbspn
Mustard seed - 1/2 tspn
Urad dhal - 1 tbspn
Tamarind paste - 1/4 or 1/2 tspn (according to taste)


Preparation method:-
In a pan add 1 tbspn oil, chopped onion, chili & bell pepper (kudaimilagai). Fry till they are cooked. Leave it to cool
Grind the fried items with salt and tamarind paste.
Heat oil in a pan. Add mustard , urad dhal. when done garnish the chutney with this.
This goes well with dosa, idli and chapathi.
