 Ingredients

2.5 cups soya beans

2 medium tomatoes

3 medium onions

1 green chilli

¾ teaspoon cumin seeds

¾ tsp ginger-garlic paste

1 sprig- curry leaves

½ tsp turmeric powder

½ tsp coriander powder

¼ tsp red chilli powder

¼ tsp garam masala powder

1 tsp sambar powder

1 ½ tsp oil

Salt to taste

¾ cup water

Coriander leaves for garnishing

Grind to paste

1 tbsp cashew nuts

¼ cup coconut, grated

½ tsp- fennel seeds

Method

Step 1: Soak beans overnight in water. Rinse the soya beans thoroughly and pressure cook them with a pinch of turmeric until tender.

Step 2: Chop the onions, tomatoes, and coriander leaves finely. Cut the green chilli in half.

Step 3: Using a little water, grind the grated coconut, fennel seeds, and cashew nuts into a smooth paste.

Step 4: Heat the oil in a skillet. When the cumin seeds begin to crackle, add the curry leaves, chopped onions, and green chilies. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown.

Step 5: Cook for 1-2 minutes after adding the ginger-garlic paste.

Step 6: Add the chopped tomatoes and simmer for 3-4 minutes on medium heat, covered, until tender.

Step 7: Combine the turmeric powder, red chilli powder, coriander powder, sambar powder, garam masala powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Stir vigorously and cook until the oil oozes out.

Step 8: Stir in the cooked soya beans. Cook for a few minutes, or until the beans are thoroughly covered with the masalas.

Step 9: Stir in the powdered paste for 1-2 minutes.

Step 10: Pour in the water and cook for 5-6 minutes, or until all of the masalas are well combined and the dish is almost dry.

Step 11: Garnish with coriander leaves and serve immediately.

Step 12: Serve the soya bean curry with rice or roti.

Tips to Enhance the Taste

The addition of sambar powder is entirely optional.

When the soya is cooked, the skin of the soya comes out slightly in some soya beans. Don’t worry about it – but if you’re concerned, simply discard the skin before adding it to the curry.

Although fresh ones are only available during certain seasons, dried ones can be used.

Serving Ideas

Serve soya bean curry hot or very warm with roti or paratha for dipping, or gluten-free steamed basmati rice, jeera rice, or ghee rice. Serve the curry garnished with coriander or mint leaves. This soya bean curry can also be served as a side dish with vegetable biryani or pulao.
