Avarakkai Egg Poriyal | Broad Beans Egg Stir fry

Avarakkai egg poriyal is close enough to the avarakkai poriyal. Addition of egg makes it look like thoran after scrambling the egg. My MIL used to prepare drumstick leaves with egg which I like the most. So when my friend told about this poriyal, I tried it immediately with slight modification. It came out really good. My son thought it as a egg burji. It is a great way to nourish kids with healthy vegetables.
