    Many thanks to you all for being so positive about my recipe.Thanks for your nice comments & ratings.

    Juels...As Joe said,Capsicum is bell pepper which are available in many colors.I used green colored.They'are not very spicy,a little bit sweet in taste.

    Joe...Nigella seeds are common in Pakistani cooking,used in curries and vegetables.I think they are also known as black caraway or black onion seeds.
