Capsicum bath recipe, Capsicum rice recipe

Capsicum bath is a very flavorful and delicious variety rice prepared by tossing cooked rice in spicy and masala flavored capsicum mixture. I prepared this recipe with regular vangi bath powder, yes I just replaced brinjal with capsicum and it turned out more flavorful and yummy dish. Sounds interesting right! This recipe is a perfect lunch box recipe and also an easy lunch recipe that can be prepared in jiffy during working day. A plain yogurt, or simple onion raita or chips goes well with this rice recipe. For this recipe I used store bought vangi bath powder but you can use home bought powder as well also this recipe can be prepared with basmati rice for extra flavors or with with regular rice as well. So try making this recipe next time you have capsicum at home. So let’s get to the making!
