Add 1 cup of mixed vegetables like peas, diced carrots, and green beans along with the onions to make the dish more nutritious and colorful.
Increase the number of green chilies to 3-4 and add 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper powder along with the other powdered spices for an extra kick.
After the tomatoes have cooked down, stir in 3 tablespoons of well-whisked plain yogurt (curd) into the masala. Cook on low heat for 2-3 minutes until oil separates, then proceed with adding the rice.

Absolutely. Prepare the egg masala as per the instructions. Once the masala is ready, add the sautéed eggs and your pre-cooked rice. Gently mix everything together and heat through for 3-4 minutes until the rice is hot.
While it's a complete meal on its own, it pairs wonderfully with a cooling side like cucumber raita, plain yogurt (curd), or a fresh kachumber salad (chopped onion, tomato, cucumber).
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, sprinkle a little water over the rice and microwave or heat it in a pan on the stovetop to restore its moisture.
