Nice recipe. I make a raita with bigger green chillies which are not hot, as my husband is allergic to capsicum, but his one with coconut would be a lot better. Loved it.
awesome and lovely pachadi and I am going to try it out very soon.
cooking the capsicum in cooker is very new to me. I generally roast it & make raita.
Very creamy and delicious.
Hi Vanamala, yummy,will try it out, tnx!
