Soya Chunks

An experiment with Nutrela soya Chunks..

Actually this is my mom's experiment some 20 years back and we've just made it a tradition since then to have it whenever we reunite.. the family i mean..

We call it CHUNKS..

You need:

Nutrela Soya Chunks - 1 Pack (200 gms i guess)
Onions - 5 big ones finely chopped
Garlic - 1 big bunch finely chopped
Green Chillies - as many as you want
Black pepper powder - again depending on you (i love it so i used about a tbspn)
Salt
Ketchup - 3 Tbspn
Chilli Sauce - 2 tbspn
Soya Sauce - 2 tbspn
Some Corn flour

Oil for cooking

How you make it:

Boil water with enough salt for soaking the soya chunks. They take approx 30 - 40 mins to swell fully. Once they are squeeze out as much water as you can. Now add some Soya Sauce (about 1 tbspn) and sprinkle corn flour just enough to coat them with both. They are ready for shallow frying. In a pan heat some oil and shallow fry all of them and keep aside.

Now in a pan/ kadahi.. heat oil add garlic, chillies and saute for a min. Add onions and cook till nicely done.. you need not turn them golden brown however they need to be cooked well. Now in a bowl add all the sauces. Add water to make them runny and add salt and black pepper to the mix. Add this mix to the onions and bring to a boil. Now add the shallow fried chunks in the pan and cook until the liquid dries out and gets soaked in..

Served best with Paranthas..

Here's how it looks:

Hope you guys enjoy it as much as we all do
