  • Add the rice and the fried eggs.
  • Mix the entire thing well and keep tossing it and fry on the high flame for about 4 minutes.

Note: I use the same recipe with noodles and replace rice with noodles. And I also like to add onion cut into thin slices if I use noodles. In that case, add the onions along with the carrot & beans.

Golbari'r Kosha Mangsho
