Notes

1. As mentioned earlier , you can make this stir fry with just mushroom + capsicum / Baby corn + capsicum too .
2. Freshly roasted pepper and cumin powder gives a nice flavor to this stir fry . So try to use fresh homemade powder only . Pepper uantity is your choice.
3. If you want you can add ginger garlic paste too .
4. I would recommend not to overcook the veggies in this stir fry .
5. If the veggies are sticking to the kadai while cooking , you can add oil or sprinkle little water
