Cauliflower capsicum stir fry / gobi shimla mirch sabzi is a simple and easy North Indian style dry curry recipe using cauliflowers and bell peppers. Cauliflowers and capsicums go well together and this stir fry is so easy and quick to make.
I recently posted capsicum peanut masala curry and loved the flavor of peanuts in the curry. I like the bright colors of capsicums and wanted to incorporate it in this curry.
In this recipe I have used green and red capsicums but you can omit the red capsicums if you don’t have them at hand.
Both cauliflowers and capsicums are great sources of vitamin C. This healthy stir fry can be served with rotis / chapatis or rice and taste delicious. Lets move on to the recipe for cauliflower capsicum stir fry.
