Potato Bell Pepper Stir fry | Potato Capsicum Poriyal

Potato Bell pepper fry, a simple and quick stir fry with potato & bell pepper. It's my recent favorite accompaniment for our lunch along with rice and sambar. I like the combination of potato & bell pepper in the  curries/korma for my rotis. One day, while preparing lunch, i was short of potatoes for my stir fry, so threw in some bell peppers & prepared as usual and it turned our super delicious. Later i have been preparing this often.Seriously potato & bell peppers are made for each other and they taste so good together. Here in the recipe,i have used pepper powder for spiciness, but i had tried with red chili powder too before, both turned out good, so you can spice it up with your favorite spices.
