Heat oil in a pan/kadai, add finely chopped onions, garlic and ginger. Saute until onions turn transparent.

Now add all the vegetables except capsicum, saute on high heat for 2-3 minutes stirring continuously.The vegetables should retain its crispiness, so it is enough if you cook for 2-3 minutes on high flame. That is the reason we are chopping the vegetables finely.

Then add capsicum and saute for a few more seconds on high heat.

Reduce the flame, add double beans, cooked rice, salt and pepper powder to taste. Toss gently and switch off the flame.
