How to Make It
Heat a broad non-stick pan on a medium flame and when hot, add the onions and garlic and dry roast on a slow flame till the onions turn light brown in colour. Sprinkle a little water to avoid the onions from burning.
Add the red chilli flakes and dry roast on a medium flame for 30 seconds. Add the capsicum, tomatoes, carrots and french beans and cook on a medium flame for 2 to 3 minutes, while stirring occasionally. Add the rajma and salt, mix well and cook on a medium flame for 30 seconds. Add the brown rice, mix well and cook on a medium flame for another minute. Serve hot.
