Soya Chunks Broccoli Curry  | Soya Chunks Curry Recipe | Indian Recipe

I attribute my varied palate to my Appa and Amma and no one else. Although South-Indian, growing up I was exposed to so many cuisines and I am not talking about, "just in restaurants". I am talking about "in Amma's kitchen". She wasn't just the Idli-Dosa kinda mom. She always ensured that she cooked up a different storm in the kitchen everyday and for that, I cannot be more thankful.
Way before this whole "vegan" thing came into existence, she introduced me to Soya Chunks.

We did eat non-veg at home but not everyday. That's when the humble Soya Chunks/ Soya Nuggets come to the rescue. The texture and taste (according to me) are nothing when compared to chicken but there is something about these nuggets that strike a chord with my palate. 

Soya chunks especially when cooked in a curry form absorb water and spices. You take one bite and you realize how juicy the soya chunks are. That is my FAVOURITE part.

I tried out a very simple and light version of a Soya Chunks Curry. Please find the recipe below.

WHAT YOU NEED FOR THE SOYA CHUNKS CURRY

1 cup of soya nuggets (soaked in hot water for half an hour and squeezed thoroughly)
1 big onion (chopped)
2 tomatoes (chopped)
Salt
Chili Powder
Turmeric Powder (Haldi)
Coriander Powder (Dhaniya)
Cumin Powder (Jeera)
Pepper 
Garam Masala
Asoefitida (Hing)
Oil 
Cumin Seeds
Chopped Garlic (optional)
Boiled broccoli florets
Broccoli stock

For the vegetables to have a distinct flavour I marinated the soya chunks and broccoli in the spices mentioned above and kept them aside for 15 minutes.


SOYA CHUNKS CURRY RECIPE 



  1. Heat oil in a pan. 

  2. Once the oil is hot, add in the cumin seeds. Wait for the raw smell to recede.

  3. After this, add in the chopped onions and sautee till they become soft and transparent. 

  4. Then add in the chopped tomatoes. 

  5. Add some spice powders such as (haldi, chili, coriander and cumin powder,garam masala, pepper, salt)
  6. Mix and cover the pan for 2-3 minutes till the tomatoes become soft.
  7. Then add in the marinated broccoli and soya chunks and stir the mixture.
  8. Add half a cup of water to the mixture to prevent the vegetables from sticking to the pan and also for the gravy-like consistency. 
  9. Cover the pan again for 2-3 minutes and cook on low-medium flame
  10. Turn off the flame and stir.
Quick, easy and tasty Soya Chunks and Broccoli Curry is now ready. You can eat it with chapathi (Indian flat bread) or rice.

Travel Post #5 : 10 BALINESE DELIGHTS TO STIMULATE YOUR TASTE BUDS

Bali is an Indonesian island known for its pristine beaches , beautiful temples and street food. There are a host of Indonesian delicacies that one would come across while walking along any road in this beautiful island. The food they serve in these small eateries ( “Warungs”) looks tempting and is too difficult to resist. Since the Indonesian Rupaiah runs in lakhs don’t be surprised if you are asked to pay up two lakh rupees for a simple dish. On my recent trip to Bali I ended up gorging on authentic Balinese/Indonesian cuisine ; right from street vendors to fancy hotels. The best part is they customize their non-veg dishes to suit the vegetarian palate too. Here are a few items that I devoured on the trip and absolutely loved. 1) Bakso This is a traditional Indonesian delicacy and one of the most popular ones. You will find plenty of street vendors selling Bakso along the streets of Bali. It is an eclectic mix of  tangy,spicy soup, meat balls, wontons, tofu and noodles....

Gokarna | Gokarna Travel | Things To Do In Gokarna | Travel Post #4

I've gone to Gokarna three times in a row. 2013, 2014 and 2015 and I know the three times is most definitely going to increase to uncountable number of times. Gokarna is actually a temple town in Karnataka,India. Devout people come there only to visit the Gokarnanatha Temple in the main town and see  (dirty) Gokarna Beach. We chose to go away from the usual track and explore the beaches on the other side of town. The first time around we took a train from Bangalore (Yeshwanthpur Station) and got off at the Gokarna Road railway station. The next time we boarded a bus from Navrang Stop at Rajajinagar and got off at the Gokarna Bus Stop. The third time around we boarded the bus from the same stop as above but got off at Kumta since we decided on having a detour before heading to Gokarn (Goks as we call it). Note : I might have to include some images from the internet as my hard disk has got corrupted and I have lost a significant number of pictures :( THINGS TO DO IN GOKARNA ...
