I never knew we could make a delicious chutney with capsicum and that too with all colour capsicums.I tried it recently and just loved it.The chutney can be used as a spread, as well as an accompaniment for our south Indian idlis,dosas and upma.My friend makes it with olive oil and uses it as a spread for bread pizza etc.I am sure it tastes great that way too.

Notes
- You can use all colour capsicums or even one colour.
- I have added tomato for volume and texture.
- You can add onion also along with tomato.
- Do not add coriander or pudina as it will dominate the flavour of capsicum.
- After grinding you can sautee it further with some oil for a longer shelf life.
