Tomato Capsicum Gojju is a gravy and its takes very little time to prepare. You can have this curry with Chapatis, Rice, Dosa or idli and even with toasted bread.
This Tomato capsicum gojju can be prepared within 15 minutes.
I have used tomatoes, capsicum and green chilly for spicy taste and it has turned as one of the yummy curry.

Note:
Do not add any water while cooking. You can add boiled potatoes and  boiled carrots to this gojju . Adding potatoes will help the curry to be thick and increases the quantity. You can also add little jaggery while the gojju is cooking. Adding any other masala like garam masala or pav baaji masala is optional. ( The taste differ).
Time : 10 Minutes.
Serves : 2 to 3.
