- Heat oil in a kadai, pop the mustard seeds and curry leaves. Add the chopped onions and saute for couple of minutes.
- Add the grated carrots, garam masala powder and some salt. Saute for another 2-3 minutes. Carrots will cook really fast and become soft.
- Add the beaten eggs to this. Leave it alone for 1-2 minutes.
- Once the eggs start cooking, toss together. Stir-fry for 2 minutes till it all gets well mixed and the eggs become firmly cooked. Its a dry dish so switch off once all the moisture has dried up.
