About Capsicum besan bhaji

Capsicum Besan Bhaji is a flavorful Indian dish combining fresh bell peppers (capsicum) with gram flour (besan), seasoned with aromatic spices like turmeric, cumin, and chili powder. This dry stir-fry originates from traditional Indian cuisine and is popular for its vibrant flavors and simplicity. Capsicum, rich in vitamins A, C, and antioxidants, adds a nutritional boost, while the gram flour provides a good source of protein and dietary fiber, making it filling and wholesome. The dish is typically cooked using minimal oil, preserving its health benefits, though deep frying or excessive oil use in some variations could increase its calorie count. Capsicum Besan Bhaji pairs well with Indian bread or rice, offering a nutritious option for vegetarians seeking a tasty, nutrient-dense meal.
