I like all dry curries very much, it pairs up well with rice and roti. Legumes and beans come handy when we run out of vegetables and want to make quick curry instantly. Of course you need to soak them but once soaked, cooked making curry or gravy is easy.

- Soya Bean – I use white dried variety soya bean. Soak it overnight then pressure cook and use it.

- Tempering – Oil is heated, mustard, curry leaves and cumin seeds are spluttered in preheated oil.
- Masala paste – Coconut along with coriander seeds, red chili, ginger and garlic are roasted and grind to a masala paste.
- Spice powders – Turmeric powder and sambar powders are added.
How to make Soya Bean Curry
- Soak soya bean over night. Drain the water next day and pressure cook with salt, turmeric powder and required water for 2-3 whistles or until the soya bean is soft.
- First grind the ingredients under to grind to a coarse paste and keep aside.
- Heat oil in a pan, add mustard seeds and cumin seeds allow it to crackle then add curry leaves. Now add onions and fry till slightly browned.
- Then add the ground paste, fry till raw smell leaves and it becomes browned and nicely roasted. At this stage add the cooked soya bean and mix well.
- Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the curry blends well with the soya bean. Switch off.
