Stuffed capsicum/bell pepper pakoras

I can't take a whole stuffed capsicum/bell pepper so I always slice them into eight pieces, stuff them with some stuffing, roll them in a batter of gram flour and deep fry them.
Today I prepared a stuffing of smashed potatoes, minced chicken, grated carrots and bell pepper shreds. I mixed some aromatic spices in the stuffing.
My capsicum pakoras came out well. My sons enjoy these pakoras a lot. I like them too with rice and dal. It served as one of my lunch dishes. Do you like pakoras? What type?

Yes, it is delicious indeed and most Indians like pakoras. I like vegetable pakoras with puffed rice.

@nela13 Are you apprehensive of the taste? Or you don't get Indian food in your country?

Pakoras are Indian dishes and are prepared from both veg and non- veg items.

Your stuffed peppers look and sound delicious. Are those peppers hot? I thought they might be since you said capsicum

@aninditasen I can't eat anything too spicy so I would probably like those peppers

The capsicum or bell pepper are cut into 4 pieces, stuffed with smashed potatoes, spices or whatever stuffings you like and dipped in a batter of gram flour and then deep fried.

Haven't tried this Indian dish. Looks delicious. I like to prepare fried peppers stuffed with fish paste.

I don't know what is fish paste is. I deep fry finely cut bell pepper with other vegetables too with some gram flour paste.

@aninditasen Fish paste is made from white fish. The fish is chopped, then blended with cornstarch. Whipped until it becomes a silky paste.

I had never heard or have had these ones.
The only bell peppers here are green, orange, and red. And they are not very hot.

It was the green bell pepper that I fried. They look brown because they were dipped in gram flour and deep fried.
