Notes
- Adding sambar powder is purely optional.
- When the soya gets cooked, the skin of the soya slightly comes out in some soya beans. Don't worry abt that but if you feel uncomfortable just discard the skin alone before adding it to the curry.
- You get soya bean in most of the super markets like Nilgiris and Spencer's daily.
- Though we get fresh ones only during seasons you can make use of the dried ones.
