Soya Chunks Vegetable Kurma Recipe with step by step pictures. This is the most simple kurma you could make with soya chunks and vegetables.
Soya Chunks Vegetable Kurma Recipe
I made this korma few months back, Had it with Beans Biryani. I love to try out different varieties of curries to have with roti or pulav. This is one of the curry which came out so good and everyone in my house loved it. I even send some korma and pulav to my fiancée and he too loved it a lot.
As you can see there is a long list of ingredients in this. But this is a perfect dish to make when you have friends coming around or having huge parties and stuff like that. Even though the recipe list looks a kind of complicated, once you start making, it will be a breeze. Hope you will enjoy this and join me again on another recipe.

Looks great, and I want to try it! Good luck with your diet. I think if you can stick with giving up chicken you will feel the health benefit. I am sure that a pure vegetarian diet is best for health.
