My hubby loves Soya chunks a lot...He was asking me to prepare soya chunks for a very long time but then i was postponing it since i dint wanna prepare it the same old way..I was in search of recipes with soyachunks and that too i wanted something that goes well with my Veg Pulao too :)

Finally I found it in Veg Bowl... Mallika is the lovely lady behind this amazing blog which has great recipes and amazing photography..Do check her blog ...its lovely:)


So here it goes
