For soyavadi nu shak

  • 4 tbsp oil
  • 1 tsp jeera

  • 2 dry red chilli
  • 1 inch cinnamon
  • 3 cloves
  • 2 big size finely chopped onion
  • 2 green chlli slits

  • 5-6 garlic cloves

  • 1 cup water
  • ½ tsp garam masala
  • ½ tsp sugar - optional
  • 1 tsp kasuri methi

Instructions

  • In a pan, add 3 cup water and salt. When water starts to boil, add soya chunks and boil vadi till it absorbs water and becomes 3 times bigger than its size.
  • Switch off the flame and rest vadi for 5 minutes in water steam.
  • Sieve water from vadi and squeeze vadi properly so water completely drains out from it.
  • In a pan, add 2 tbsp oil. Add vadi and roast vadi in oil so it will properly dry out.  Take out roasted vadi on the plate and keep it aside.
  • Now in a pan, add oil and heat it.  Then add cumin seeds, bay leaf, dry red chilli, cinnamon, and cloves. Sauté for a minute.
  • Add chopped onion and cook onion till it becomes slightly golden brown. Meanwhile in a mixture jar, add tomatoes, ginger and garlic cloves. Grind it into a smooth paste.
  • Then Add green chilli and sauté for a few seconds.
  • Now lower the flame and in a bowl take some water, add red chilli powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder, and cumin powder. Mix well.
  • Add masala paste into oil and sauté till oil separates from its sides.
  • Then add tomato puree and salt. Cover and cook gravy till oil separates from its sides.
  • Now add soya chunks and mix properly into the gravy.
  • Then add 1 cup of water and mix well. Cover and simmer sabzi for 5-7 minutes.
  • Add garam masala, sugar and kasuri methi. Mix well
  • Garnish with coriander leaves and serve soyavadi nu shaak with roti, paratha, or hot steamed rice.

Notes

  • masala paste gives nice flavor and color to the sabzi.
  • cover and cook sabzi for 5-7 minutes, so the flavor of masala is absorbed into soyavadi.
  • Serve sabzi with roti, paratha or hot steam rice.
