Capsicum Halwa?? What are you talking? No!!

Yes, that;s what my husband said once , I told him the name of dessert which he was enjoying eating otherwise. I purposely had not told him the name before he started for who would otherwise find the name Capsicum Halwa appealing. I mean, the chilli which gets sweet taste can't be most wanted . Really?

You got to taste this super yum Capsicum Halwa before you too have a stereotype against the humble capsicum and its beautiful by product Capsicum Halwa. How did I learn about Capsicum Halwa? Well I happened to meet Pooja Khanna , Founder 2blissofbaking over a Foodkichat live chat session and that's exactly when she mentioned about having Capsicum Halwa. It then stuck me to try myself and not only was I amazed to taste it myself, I loved how easy was it to prepare this amazing Capsicum Halwa.
