Capsicum and Broccoli curry is a rich and healthy sidedish for chapathis or pulkhas. We tried this recipe for the first time and it turned out so so yummy , that I felt it like a restaurant bought dish. You should definitely give it a try to witness it yourself. I had been wanting to get rid of my non-stick pan seeing the health hazards of its usage. Last week, I found a cast iron pan in IKEA and bought it too. Though its toooo heavy , I love it. My mom used to have such heavy kadais and all her vegetable dry roasts, especially vazhakkai fry will have such a crispy yummy taste. Its because the iron pans retain the heat for longer time.

This vegetable fried rice recipe is one that I learnt from my college friend Heyma. Her mom used to give this vegetable fried rice for lunch and the whole class will be awaiting for her box. Poor girl, she will get nothing at the end. It used to be so much flavorful. I remember that I got the recipe from her in phone and penned down during those days. This is one of the very few recipes that I learnt to cook, before marriage. I would suggest to make the rice beforehand and let it cool down completely.
