How to make Soya Chunks Curry

Now, in a different kadhai, heat Purti oil and add cinnamon stick, bay leaf, and cumin seed. Saute them well. Then add 1 sliced onion and saute again. Add turmeric and chilli powder followed by the prepared paste. Saute it again. Now, add coriander powder, curd, salt, and 1 cup of water. Mix everything well.

·         Step 4 Add soya chunks to the curry

Finally, add soya chunks to the curry. Cover it with a lid and let it simmer for about 8 mins. Once done, add kasoori methi and garam masala. Mix everything well and let it cook for 2 more minutes. Switch off the gas flame now.
