SOYA BEAN CURRY

Soya are rich in vitamin E and fibers. Regular intake of soya reduces risk of heart diseases, prevent breast cancer, reduce cholesterol and many more. There are lots of soya products like soya milk, soya nuggets, soya flour which are very very healthy. I am sure there are only few people who love the taste of soya. In my family, I am the only person who adore soya products. When my mom visited my place she brought these soya bean out of which I decided to prepare a curry for the first time. To my surpirse, eveyone loved it. Frankly, the matter that i dont like is smell of cooked soya bean but I love its flavour which is just perfect when its mixed up with masalas. This curry goes well with chappati, naan, kulcha etc.
