Soya Nugget Curry

For many years I have been collecting recipes and writing them down in diaries. I have therefore began sharing all those recipes with you so that you can recreate each recipe, just as I do in my kitchen here in Kolkata, India.

If you are an experienced cook, please excuse me when I add or change any detail to each recipe. I have sometimes chosen quick and easy to make procedures over authentic ones but that does not make the dish any less authentic or delicious.

Please try these recipes that I have tried many times with good results in your kitchen and don't forget to tell me about your experiences. Have fun !!!!

Ingredients :

Soya Nuggets................................................................ 100 grams

Potato,cubed................................................................. 2,large

Onion ........................................................................... 1,small

Method :

In a pan heat 2 cups of water and soak the soya nuggets for 20minutes. Squeeze out the water and repeat the process again. Heat the refined oil in a wok and fry the nuggets till golden. Remove and keep aside. Also fry the cubed potatoes till golden and keep aside.

Make a smooth paste of onion, green chilly and tomato.

Heat the ghee.I prefer using Anik ghee as it lends a wonderful and unique flavour to the dish.

Add the onion, tomato, green chilly and ginger pastes and fry till oil rises to the top and you start getting a nice smell.

Add the powder spices, salt and sugar next and fry. Sprinkle some water to avoid the burning of spices.

Add the potato cubes and 1 enough water to make a gravy. Cover with a lid and let the potato pieces soften and cook.

After 10 minutes remove lid and add the soya nuggets and simmer till the gravy thickens.Turn the flame off.

Sprinkle garam masala powder. Serve hot .

I serve it with paratha or roti.
