Cabbage And Capsicum Rice

It happened to be one of my  "No Way Am I Cooking"  or NWAIC days. The day when I refuse to cook and my hubby does all of it. But this  particular NWAIC day , he had to work and I was left with no choice but to cook, to satisfy my rumbling stomach.  I had shredded cabbage and one capsicum left in my fridge and was really happy when i found this quick and easy recipe ( courtesy :vahrehvah.com) with just these two as the main ingredients. I didn't realise a recipe this simple could taste this good.
