Capsicum raitha

I wanted to make a different raitha from the usual cucumber and tomato raitha that i usually make at a party. The idea for this recipe came from my friend D’ who brought over this raitha for a lunch party. I really liked the flavours that the green pepper lent to the raitha. This is my version of D’s recipe.
 
Ingredients:
Green pepper-1 large
fresh pomegranate- 3 tbsps (optional)
green chillies slit- 3nos
tumeric-1/4tsp
mustard seeds- 1tsp
cumin seeds-1 tsp
coriander and mint leaves- a few
curds- 1 big cup
hing- pinch

Method:

2. Add the tumeric, diced green pepper and salt and fry till pepper turns soft. Let it cool. 3. Once cool add curds and pomegranate stir well. Serve chilled.
