Everyday with twist

I was under the impression that combo veggie - aloo matar, aloo gobi and so on... were a North Indian style of cooking.

Recently I made beerakaya with eggs in it, I let the eggs stay intact for too long. I didnt get to mix it before switching it off. When i opened my lunch box, I ended up with 3 yellows.
Sanjay Thumma too has some combinations - beerakaya and scrambled egg, capsicum with lentils.
