Eating a vegetarian meal 2-3 times a week is what I aim to do. And this recipe for Spicy Peppers just hits the spot! Its sweet and crunchy and full of flavor, perfect accompanied by my vegetable pulau rice or serve with some fried eggs and hot paratha. Recipe for this dish is in the link in the bio.

Serves 4–6 Prep time 10 mins

1 tbsp oil
¼ tsp cumin seeds
