Masala Mirch (Spiced Pepper)

I went to purchase vegetables and to my surprise I found big green peppers which are mild and I immediately took some for preparing masala mirch. My mother makes this often and everybody loves it. 

To make Masala Mirch you will need :-
2-3  peppers (big green peppers which are mild)
5 teaspoon oil
Salt to taste
Pinch of garam masala
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon coriander cumin powder
1-1/2 teaspoon red chilly powder
1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
Water as needed

Wash peppers properly and pat dry them. Remove all the seeds by making a slit. Keep them aside. Take a bowl and add coriander cumin powder, sugar, salt, garam masala, red chilly powder, turmeric powder and 2 teaspoon oil and mix well. Now heat up 3 teaspoon oil in the pan. While oil is heating up fill some of the masala in the peppers and keep some masala for garnishing. When oil is hot add peppers in pan and allow them to cook. Add 4-5 tablespoon water if needed. Cook on all the sides. When the masala gets cooked and when the peppers get tender add rest of masala and cover with lid. Allow all the masala and peppers to cook well. Serve with roti or paratha.
