Fresh Red Bell Pepper, also known as Red Capsicum, Lal Shimla Mirch and Kudamilagai, has a naturally sweet flavour, juicy crunch and vibrant red colour. It can be eaten raw or cooked and works well in Indian curries, stir-fries, salads, roasting and stuffed dishes. Find it in our Everyday Vegetables collection or browse all fresh produce in Fresh Foods.
Slice it for Shimla Mirch Sabzi, Paneer Jalfrezi or Kadai Paneer. Roast until lightly charred for sauces and dips, add raw strips to salads and wraps, or fill the whole pepper with a seasoned rice, paneer or vegetable mixture for stuffed capsicum.
Are red bell peppers spicy?
No. Red bell peppers are sweet and mild, without the heat associated with chilli peppers.
Can I eat red bell pepper raw?
Yes. Wash it, remove the stem and seeds, then slice it for salads, wraps and snacks.
Can I freeze red bell pepper?
Yes. Slice or dice it before freezing and use it later in cooked dishes.
