Baby Corn Bell Pepper Chilli is very simple, easy and quick dish with indo Chinese fusion. It can be prepared in few minutes. In this recipe, the soft textures of the corn is beautifully balanced by the crunchiness of the bell pepper and onion.
I always prefer this starter dish whenever I have a party at home or just even relaxing in front of my laptop doing some writing because it doesn’t make me feel that I have eaten too much but still my taste buds gets satisfied with its scrumptious aroma and taste.
Baby Corn Bell Pepper Chilli has all the addictive flavour combinations that the Indo-Chinese cuisine promises. Sweet, sour, hot and a hearty bite that’s chewy and tender yet firm. You can work around the flavours to suit your needs. This is easily customizable. I enjoyed it with my favourite mocktail drink.

| Tip: You can make similar dish using potatoes, cauliflower or even tofu or paneer. Just follow same process and substitute these with Baby corn. |
