PEAR, PEAS SUBZI

I have posted pear pickle recipe.  Now I am presenting an easy subzi made out of pears, peas and capsicum.

We had some pears which was bit sour, firm and no one liked to eat this fruit.  Since I cannot waste it, I thought of trying a subzi out of this and came out well as an accompaniment for roti, phulka.
