Notes:-

1. You can add more or remove onion, tomato and potato as per your choice.
2. Use your favorite masala like chat masala, pao bhaji masala etc.
3. You can add your favorite veggie in it but i wanted it to be legume based. 
4. How much water should be used to cook rice depends upon so many things like quality of rice, size of vessel etc, so add water and cook accordingly.

HOPE YOU WILL LIKE IT
