Add finely chopped large onions and fry well.

Once the onions are fried translucent, add the chopped tomatoes and green chillies cut lengthwise and fry for 2 minutes on medium flame.

Now, add finely chopped potatoes, carrots, beans, green peas and a pinch of salt and fry for a minute or two.

Add the ginger-garlic paste and fry until the green smell goes away.
