“Indian Veg BBQ Capsicum is a colorful and flavorful vegetarian dish made by grilling capsicum (bell peppers) marinated in a spiced yogurt mix, giving them a smoky, tangy, and mildly charred taste. It’s a popular component of Indian tandoori platters and BBQ-style starters.

Chunks of green, red, and yellow capsicum are typically used for their sweetness and vibrant appeal. They are marinated in a mixture of hung curd (thick yogurt), ginger-garlic paste, red chili powder, turmeric, garam masala, cumin, and lemon juice. A bit of mustard oil or kasuri methi (dried fenugreek) is often added to enhance the traditional tandoori flavor.

Once marinated, the capsicum pieces are skewered and grilled over open flame, in a tandoor, or in an oven until they develop a slight char while staying crisp-tender. Finished with a sprinkle of chaat masala and fresh coriander, Indian Veg BBQ Capsicum is a vibrant, aromatic dish that serves as a perfect appetizer or accompaniment to grilled meals.
