DRY SOYA BEAN CURRY

Soya-bean-dry-curry
        My MIL made this once for me and I was surprised when I knew it was soya bean. Then every time when I go to Chennai,my MIL has a pack of this dry soya bean to pass it to me. I make this curry just like her or make it as a simple sundal with no onion or garlic. Love it either way and eat as such … I make this when I run out of veggies and the job gets easily done in the early morning,if you soak overnight, morning just have to pressure cook in a separate vessel when we keep rice and no cutting veggie part,we can easily make an accompaniment for rice. Club this with any rasam so its a perfect, comfort lunch box idea!!

Notes:
  • You can also try making the simple way like we do other sundals too..
  • This masala we grind is very very flavorful,while you grind you can smell it ,the whole house would smell while you make this curry!
