4-5 curry leaves
1/2 tsp sugar

2tbs oil

METHOD:
1)Wash and cut the capsicum stems and take off the seeds thus making the space for stuffing.
2)Dry roast the red chillies,channa dal,urad dal,coriander seeds,sesame ,mustard ,curry leaves, little hing.
3)Let this dry mixture cool for sometime .
4)Using coffee grinder, powder the dry mixture then add 1/2 cup of coconut,sugar ,amchur powder,salt mix this together .
5)Then take a capsicum and stuff the coconut mixture ,i think 2tbs is enough for small capsicum (it depends upon the size of the capsicum.) repeat the same with remaining capsicums.
6)Take a pan and arrange the capsicum and cut bottom of capsicum a little, that way it sits nicely on the pan .
7) Grease little oil around the capsicum and bake this in 300F for 10-12 minutes.
