Carrot Potato egg fry/ carrot Potato fry with eggs

Carrot Potato egg fry recipe with step by step pictures 

                 Carrot Potato egg fry is a sidedish recipe for rice.  Carrot and potato is a very good combination.  I usually make poriyal with these two vegetables.  But my daughter likes egg very much.  She likes to eat egg in her daily food.  So i try to include egg in poriyals.  It tastes yummy.  

              In south-indian poriyal recipes,  we use coconut as a topping.   In this recipe,  i replace grated coconut with eggs. Hope you like it.
