Hi friends , hope u all celebrated Ganesh chaturthi very well . We too had a great celebration with my in-laws :) and back to routine..
I got this recipe from a magazine.It was mentioned that this gravy can be had with
dosa , appam , roti and rice. Basically i love soya chunks/meal maker a lot. My Mom used to add them in
biryani &
kurma . But my MIL never uses it as my husband is not fond of it. Though i like it very much , i couldn’t make often in my kitchen. Recently a reader in facebook mailed me to post some soya chunks recipe for rice..As i have not posted any soya recipes before , i really wanted to post one..So i started searching for some recipes & finally i got this recipe from aval vikatan..I have tried this twice so far and i loved it with rice , roti and dosa. Usually i like to mix kuruma kind of gravy with rice. I have already posted cauliflower gravy for rice n tiffin , my mom’s recipe very long back.This is also one such kind..
