thanks for ur compliments…..
Hi,
What would be the substitute of capsicum in this recipe?
Thanks
Priya
hi priya,
Usually it is added to get the authentic taste,since capsicum has its own aroma and enhances the flavour of this dish.
If u want u can try without that…
Hi Sujatha,
I will definitely try this recipe..
Thanks

HI,
I just found ur website when i was looking for a recipe on spring rolls. I love ur site. I am not a great cook,but I want to learn. You r doing a great job. Keep it up.
I have a doubt in the “Kadai paneer” recipe. You said to “pound the red chillies and the corriander seeds together”. But in the next paragraph you said “In a wok add corriander seeds”. So do u use 1tsp of corriander seeds in each part? It would be great if u could clarify this. Thanks.
hi sri,
sorry abt that.As i have said in the instruction u can add the whole coriander seeds ,but its optional ,in that case add 1tsp of whole coriander seeds.The coriander seeds in group 1 has to be pounded.
