Wash the spinach thoroughly and chop it finely. Heat oil in a kadai. Add mustard seeds, dry red chilli, garlic, and onion. Sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant.

Crack in the eggs and cook for 2 minutes, stirring gently until the eggs are softly scrambled and combined. Add the cooked rice and pepper powder. Mix well so everything is evenly combined. Stir-fry for 1–2 minutes on medium heat. Switch off the flame and serve hot.
