This recipe I learnt from my Mother-in-law, as she makes this recipe for my Brother-in-law for his lunch box frequntly. From that, I also started making this recipe for my husband, and now its a favourite dish for me. It is very easy to make it very quickly.

2. Add Grated carrot, garam masala powder, salt. Mix well.
3. Close the lid for sometime to cook the carrots.
4. Spread the cooked rice and add this mixture to the rice. Add ghee and salt to the rice. Mix gently. So that rice should not be mashed.
