Bok Choy - Bell Pepper Chutney / Chutney Recipe - 38 / #100chutneys

Bok Choy is a type of Chinese cabbage which is also otherwise called as Pak Choi. These leaves are generally used in Stir fry and Soup. Apart from stir fry and soup, I love adding it in Omelette which gives a lovely flavour and also I have included in Rice and Curries. For the first time, I tried chutney out of these and it tasted yummy. I have included Bellpepper / Capsicum and Tomato to enhance the flavour and also to make it healthy. The addition of cumin seed gives a lovely taste and sesame seed gives a rich texture to the chutney. This nutritious chutney can be served with Rice, Idly or Dosa.
