Spicy and tasty peas and soya granules aka matar soya keema curry that is damn delicious to try with roti.
Soya products are filled with enormous amount of protein, iron, calcium or in short, we can say that full of calories. I always used them for making cutlets, curry, pulav , biryani and toast.Soya granules curry with peas is now my all-time favourite, an excellent side dish accompanied with rice or chapati.
Normally I preferred to use Soya chunks for curry but someday I tasted soya granules curry at a friend’ place and it tastes super delicious that I started preparing it twice in a month. This preparation is effortless to cook and so scrumptious to relish that if you tried it once, you gonna LOVE it.
