Presenting You The sweet and sweet Shimla Mirch

Have a look at its silky shiny skin,Innocent,Sweet and little capsicum.It is the member of Nightshade family of plant and botanically its a fruite.some lines Of my One of the favourite song.I would like to dedicate to my baby Capsicum 👇

I am in Love the shape of you🎶

As we usually talk about benefits of vegetables, We talk about its Essential substance,its nutritional importance and values,but there is an other thing which is emotional attachment with some particular vegetables.Yes I know I am talking crazy,but seriously believe me this happens .Bell peppers, also known as sweet pepper or capsicum are basically peppers of less pungent varieties which are available in different colours such as yellow, red, green, purple and orange.

One Reason why I like it is that Bell peppers are not spicy like other hot pepper cousins. The primary substance that controls "hotness" in peppers is called capsaicin due to the sweet nature of this capsicum I specially like it out of other vegetables.

Without the pepper All of my Chinese cuisines are incomplete. Whatever it is Singaporean Rice or Marconi’s Either it is spaghetti 🍝. I don’t know why I love this vege too much beyond as you people knows that it is just an ordinary vegetable instead of it I love it.Its fragrance its sharp green colour which attracts me when I see it in vegetable shop.Whenever I see it I feels that it it is saying that Sadi take me home with you😅Today I went to market with my mother and there I saw this beautiful attractive Shimla Mirch My Mother ask me you have bout it and I said Because I love to see it in Our kitchen either I am cooking something or not.When I cut the pepper from centre its sweet smell felt me that pepper should be used as a perfume.when I fry slices of that capsicum its sweet mouth watering fragrance spread in the air around me and my kitchen. As I mentioned before every Chinese cuisine of my kitchen is incomplete without it.I like Chinese food just because of this single ingredient or Vege which is mine little innocent Shimla Mirch.One more thing I want to clear here is that I am not pregnant.😂Mostly these type of feeling means Fall in love with some kind ho vegetable fragrance is happens in pregnancy.But I am not,I have shared this to my Friend And he asked me this.so that I am clearing that.🙆😜
