Although I love eating soya nuggets, { nutrela/ soya chunks}, somehow, I was not getting the right taste. But recently, I experimented with it and came out with some wonderful results. Here is my version of cooking this dish:
Ingredients:
Soya Nuggets, 1 small bowl,boiled
Make a paste from the following ingredients :
Using a grinder,make a paste from half piece of 1 big onion, 10 pods of garlic, 2 inch ginger and half of 1 big tomato
Chop the other half of the onion and the other half of the tomato and keep them aside.
1 green chili, chopped,
1 teaspoon of cumin/jeera powder
Half teaspoon of black pepper powder
Fresh coriander leaves,chopped [ optional]
A pinch of turmeric powder
1/4 teaspoon of kashmiri mirch/red chili powder
A pinch of sugar
Whole cumin seeds
Salt to taste
Mustard Oil [ You can use refined oil too]
Method:
Boil the soya nuggets in water, with a pinch of cumin powder, black pepper powder, turmeric powder and salt until very tender. Now drain the entire water and add some oil and kashmiri red chili powder to the boiled soya nuggets, mix thoroughly and keep it in the fridge for 1 hour {or the whole day/overnight if you wish}.
Now, heat oil in a pan. Add some whole cumin seeds, followed by the chopped onions. After a minute or so, add the boiled soya nuggets and fry them for at least 5 minutes in medium heat. Now add the marinated paste, [which is made from onion+ginger+garlic+tomato]. Add the turmeric powder,salt,cumin powder, black pepper powder,sugar, chopped tomatoes and green chillies. Mix everything thoroughly. Keep frying for 5 minutes.
After 5 minutes, add some water[ say 4 tablespoon of water or more ] and keep stirring with a spatula for 1 minute. Now,lower the heat and cover the pan for 5 minutes. Finally, add the chopped coriander leaves. Mix well and your dish is ready.
