roasted capsicum chutney recipe | burnt capsicum chutney | roasted bell pepper chatni with step by step photo and video recipe. roasted chutney recipes are very common across india and are typically made in villages. generally, it is made with either tomato, garlic or onions, but can also be done with other types of vegetables. one such easy and simple innovative chatni recipe is burnt capsicum chutney loaded with flavour and aroma.

i have posted quite a few roasted vegetable chutney recipes in my blog. but i have to admit that this chatni of burnt capsicum is the most flavoured and aroma rich chutney out of all. perhaps due to the fact that this recipe is made from capsicum. my guess is that the capsicum holds the burnt flavour or is infused within the capsicum. hence when grounded with other spices it releases to the condiment and thus making an ideal aroma rich chutney. in addition, i have not used coconut to improve its consistency which also means that the shelf life can significantly improve. hence you can make it in bulk and store it refrigerator for a week. you can serve it with dosa, idli chutney and even as a side dish to dal rice and roti for lunch and dinner.

some more additional tips, suggestions and variants to the roasted capsicum chutney recipe. firstly, the capsicum or bell pepper is very critical for this chatni and hence i would heavily recommend using fresh and tender capsicum for this recipe. also, if possible try to use small-sized capsicum as it is easy to handle while burning. secondly, as a variation to this chutney, you may also use red coloured or yellow coloured capsicum. moreover, you can mix and match both green, red and yellow coloured for more variants. lastly, the final step of roasting the grounded chutney with some oil and tempering ingredients helps to remove any raw flavour. also, extra oil helps to improve the shelf life of the chutney and hence do not skip this step.
