    capsicum chutney recipe

    Red Capsicum Chutney or Red Bell Pepper Chutney Recipe with step by step photos. If you are bored of the same chutneys that you make as a side dish for idli and dosa, its time you made this red capsicum chutney. This is a very simple and easy chutney that is mild in spice which you can increase or decrease according to your preference. This red capsicum chutney can also be used as a spread or as a dip too.

    Like how you use the mint chutney as a sandwich spread, you can also use this red capsicum chutney as a sandwich spread to add that much needed eye catching color to your kids snack or lunch box.

    Having some toasts, chips or nachos to serve and wondering about the dip, use this red bell pepper chutney and a healthy snack is ready to be served in minutes.

    I love red capsicum especially to be used while making chutney instead of the green one as the latter has got a more pungent smell to it. Red capsicum has got that mild sweetness to it and also grows more in volume when made into a chutney.

      Hi Radhika,
      Thank you for this wonderful chutney.

      I tried with Yellow bell peppers and they came out very well too. Also, i did one modification of equal number of tomatoes as bell peppers. That also came out to be good.
