I made this quick pepper gobi yesterday and served it with my egg fried rice. It was so delicious, you can have it like a appetizer, juts like gobi 65. But i loved the taste of this more than gobi 65. YUM YUM..
The real taste of this dish comes from the pepper, so add a good amount of that and it will blow up your socks off. You could some capsicum if you want, but i want to keep it simple. So give this a try and you will love this for sure..
