SWEET POTATO – CAPSICUM PALYA/SUBJI

The recipe is in the same method in which we make this palya using potato along with capsicum, but for a change I have used/tried making the same Palya using sweet potato along with capsicum and served it with ragi rotti . It turned out equally flavorful, tasty and yummy. I have used the Palyada pudi/home made subji masala in this Palya, and the aroma it released was delectable.

Ingredients :

Sweet potato – 2 medium sized
Capsicum – 4 medium sized
oil – 2 tsp
Mustard seeds – 1/4 tsp
Curry leaves – 2 strings
Turmeric powder – 1/2 tsp
Palyada pudi/home made subji masala – 1&1/2 tbsp (adjust)
Lemon juice – 1 tsp
Salt to taste
Water – 1 tbsp

PROCEDURE :

Peel, wash well and dice the sweet potatoes and cook till soft (I always cook it in a open vessel)
Also wash well and dice the capsicum as well
Heat oil in a pan, add in mustard seeds, curry leaves when they splutter add in capsicum and salt as needed, saute well, reduce the heat, cover and allow it to become little soft
Now add in cooked sweet potato, 1 tbsp of water, salt as needed, turmeric powder, Palyada pudi and salt as needed
