Nice side dish for sambar sadam or can make a chapati roll or make sandwich filling.
It is one of my favorites side dishes which my mom makes often in my childhood. After marriage I made this for my husband for sambar and rice, He liked it much as it seemed a new combo for him, beans and eggs. I will go well with everything eve for chapati.
Cut the beans into 1-inch pieces and don't overcook the beans, it should be chrunchy. If you make into small pieces it will overcook soon and when combined with egg it will be mushy and won't taste good and add oil little over than usual will taste better.

- Onion - 1medium size (chopped)
- Mustards seeds - 1 heaped tsp
- Green chilies - 2nos

Cooking Tips
- If you don't have sambar powder just the chili powder instead of the sambar powder.
