This is an easy stir fry side dish can be served along with Roti / Rice. I had lots of carrots in my fridge and you must have observed my blog is filled with carrot recipes :) I usually prepare this sabzi for my kids lunch box. It's a quick option on busy weekdays lunch box menu, you need not have to preboil anything. You just need to chop the carrots finely. Again this is the recipe I learned from my sister, she is "Annapoorna" :). Give her any ingredients she will prepare a dish out of it. If she would knew the technology, definitely would be a star by now in this "online" culinary world!
