Soya Chunky Curry

             My better half was asking me to make the Soya curry for long time, Which i made it a year before but I couldn't make it in the same way because i lost my recipe notes somewhere and unable to get the same taste whenever i want to recreate it.
For me now the blog is a boon, where i note down the procedure and ingredients.
Ok, this recipe is also some thing different than the one my better half asked for...
It's mild in spices and awesome pair with Rotis, chappathis and pulkas.

Ingredients:
Soya Chunks : 50 gms
Ginger garlic paste - 2 tsp
Mint - 1 tbsp. leaves.
Coriander powder - 2 tsp
Chilly powder - 1 tsp
Turmeric - 1/4 tsp
Curd - 1 tbsp.
salt to taste
oil to temper

To Grind:
Onion (roast with little oil) - 2 nos
Cashews - 10
Coconut - 1/4 cup.

Methods:

 

Drop the Soya chunks in a hot boiling water and switch off.
Keep the vessel closed for some 5 mins
Drain and change it with cold water and squeeze the extra water from the chunks and keep it aside.

Heat a pan with 2 tsp oil, temper with cloves, cinnamon, Cardamon and Mint leaves.
Add ginger garlic paste and sauté till it turns to golden brown.
Add the grinded paste of onion, cashews and coconut and allow to boil until the raw smell goes.
Now add chilly, coriander and turmeric powder and sauté well.
Add the chunks and salt to taste.
Add the curd and close the lid and allow to cook.

Best to serve it with Rotis...
