Yellow bell pepper
Shimla Mirch
150 g1 medium yellow bell pepper (about 150 g)
Typical medium bell pepper about 150 g.
Instead of Yellow bell pepper
Red bell pepperUse the same weight and cook the same way. It is sweeter and turns the dish red rather than yellow.
Green bell pepperUse the same weight. It is grassier and slightly bitter, so add a pinch of sugar and cook 1–2 minutes longer.
CourgetteUse the same weight; halve and deseed if large, and add 3–4 minutes later as it releases water. Texture will be softer.
