Ingredients required for this recipe are- (6 SERVINGS)
· 2 cup basmati rice
· 2 medium onions
· 2 small capsicums (green pepper)
· 2 green chilli
· 4 tablespoon soy sauce
· 3 teaspoons refined oil
· 8 eggs
· 2 large carrots
· 1/2 tablespoon black pepper
· 2 tablespoon tomato puree
· 4 pinches salt
For Garnishing

Step 1 – Parboil the rice
Take a bowl and put down 2 cups of rice in it. Wash the rice properly in the cold running water 2 to 3 times. Once it is done, boil the rice and keep it aside.
Step 2 – Chop all the veggies
Now, take some vegetables like carrot, capsicum, onion, chillies and others whatever you wish. Wash them properly and finely chop them. Once done, take a grinder and grind green chillies to a fine paste. Make sure that you soak the vegetables in lukewarm water with a pinch of salt so that the vegetables are free from adulteration.
Step 3 – Saute the chopped vegetables
Next, take a pan, put some oil in it and heat it over medium flame. When the oil is hot enough, add chopped onions and stir fry on high flame for 2-3 minutes. Once the onions are started turning translucent, add the remaining vegetables and cook on high flame for around 5 minutes. Keep stirring and then add green chilli paste, salt, tomato puree and soya sauce and keep the flame high.
Step 4- Stir fry the eggs like bhurji
Take another pan and add a tablespoon of oil or butter to it. Now, break all the 8 eggs into the pan and stir-fry for 4 to 5 minutes. Mix well properly and add the bhurji (scrambled eggs) to the pan in which you sauteed the vegetables (step 3)
Step 5 – Add boiled rice and toss it well, and serve
Finally, add boiled rice to the pan and toss well for 3-4 minutes. You can garnish it with coriander leaves which will enhance the taste of this dish. Now, your dish is ready to serve.
Enjoy the hot egg fried rice with your family! Happy Eating.
