Indian Egg Fried Rice

I remember how my mom used to make it. I miss it so much. Here's a recipe i came up with, and it tasted good.

Ingredients:
2C cooked Basmati Rice [ with 1/2 tsp of oil]
1/2 C chopped Carrots and
1/2 C chopped beans [if not you can add 1 cup of mixed vegetable]
6 Eggs
1 Tbs heap of ginger garlic paste
1 tsp Pepper
1 tsp salt + more as per taste
4 Green chillies (long slit into half)
1 stem of Curry leaves
1/2 tsp Garam masala
1/2 tsp jeera powder
2 tsp soy sauce

Steps:
1. In a pan1 add some oil, after its heated then add 6 Eggs and start mixing, add 1/2 tsp pepper and 1/2 tsp salt and continue to mix it in regular intervals, once the egg solidifies start chopping with the spatula so they become smaller, add another pinch of salt, pepper and 1/2 tsp jeera powder keep mixing until it slightly turns brown. and keep it aside.

2. In a kadai #2 add 3 tbs oil once its heated add the vegetables and mix for a minute and push the veggies on to the sides so that you have some space in the center where the oil accumulates.

3. Now add Ginger garlic paste, mix for a minute or 2 then add green chillies and curry leaves, mix for a minute or 2

4. Now mix all the vegetables together with the ginger garlic paste and mix for few minutes, add 1 tsp salt and 3/4 tsp pepper mix for few minutes, then add 2 tsp soy sauce and mix it. mix in regular intervals for another 5 minutes or until veggies are soften

5. Now add the eggs from pan1 into the kadai mix for 5 minutes.

6. Now add the cooked basmati rice in small batches and mix it for 5 minutes and the fried rice is ready.


Note:
1. Reduce the sale and pepper by half, if you are eating the rice with another curry.
