Junka/Pitla- Bell pepper Chickpea curry

This dish traditionally belong to interiors of Maharashtra. What a perfect blend of spices and taste great when eaten with freshly made Bhakri ( Indian version of making flat breads) For recipe of Rice Bhakri click here. Made of chickpea flour mainly. You can play around with the veggies that goes into its making, But this is what I like.

Ingrediants

Roughly chopped Green and Red Bell Pepper
1/2 Tomato
1 chopped green chili
1/2 cup Besan/ chickpea flour
About 2-3 cups of water
turmeric powder
chilipowder
cumin
coriander powder
Salt to taste
pinch of garam Masala powder

Procedure

 Take a bowl  and add chickpea flour to it and about a cup of water and mix it well till no lumps are formed.

Now a take skillet add little oil to it. Add a tsp of cumin seeds, and then add green chili to it, Add a pinch of Hing/ astefotedia and now add the veggies in it and saute it for about 5 min, Add the spices to it. Now pour in the besan batter and water about another 2 cups of water to it, simmer the stove and let it cook for  about 10 min on medium flame.

Add sufficient water to it so that it can boil and cook properly, else the besan will taste raw and also we are looking at curry consistency so add water accordingly.

Server it piping hot!!
