      Thanks Aarti, would like to try. How is the texture of the soya? Is it very chewy typically like soya chunks? My husband seems to hate soya n I have a packet full to finish

      Hello, this dish looked very tempting,so I made it today. Unfortunately the soya chunks turned very hard. Well, I soaked soya chunks overnight and then deep fried the marinated chunks. Kindly enlighten me abt the soya cooking process. Thank you.
