Capsicum Idiappam

                                               Capsicum Idiappam is prepared by me whenever red Bell Pepper is available in our local weekly Shandy, called Chandai in Tamil at a nominal cost.
                                               There is always a store of roasted rice flour in my shelf. I am also now comfortable in making Idiappam, having learned the techniques by trial and error.For preparing Idiappam, refer to my post, Idiappam.
