Kudaimilagaai pachadi - Capsicum Raita Recipe

Capsicum/Bell Pepper is used in many dishes from sambar to salad and is available in many colours. Here is Kudamilagai Puli Pachadi (Capsicum/Bell Pepper in Sweet and Sour Sauce). I used green colour bell pepper to make this pachadi, but any colour can be used. This sweet and sour pachadi, goes well as a side dish.
