  • Toss it well, then add coconut and mix well.Switch off.
  • Sweet Version : Heat oil in a pan - temper jeera let it crackle,then add soya bean,add tamarind pulp.
  • Then add jaggery syrup,toss it well.Once the moisture is absorbed add coconut.
  • Cook in low flame for 2mins,toss it  and switch off.
  • Serve Soya Bean Sundal hot / warm as a evening snack!

Notes

  • Soaking – I always soak soya beans overnight or at least for 6 to 7 hours so they become soft after cooking.
  • Cooking the Beans – I usually pressure cook for 3 whistles, it gives the right texture. Do not overcook otherwise it will turn mushy.
  • Sweet or Salt – You can divide the cooked beans into two parts for making both versions, that way you can enjoy both flavors.
  • Coconut Choice – I have used fresh grated coconut as it gives best flavor. Frozen can be used if you thaw well before adding.
  • Jaggery – You can adjust the jaggery add less if you want a milder taste and more for a sweeter taste. Both tastes good.
