Egg-Vegetable Rice

People try different varieties of rice items nowadays. Egg- vegetable rice is basically egg rice with a small twist, ie, the goodness of vegetables combined with the nutrients in egg. This is easy to make and I normally make it when I get bored of cooking normal dishes or there is shortage of vegetables in my fridge.  This can be had with raita or pickle.
