It is a good source of protein for the vegetarians and is widely used in Indian cuisine for making soya chunks biryani, soya chunks stir fry, meal maker fried rice and soya chunks gravy curry too.
Today’s soya keema curry recipe can be very well be prepared with either soya chunks or with soya granules or minced soya chunks / granules (ground). This is one of the tastiest soya keema I have ever tasted. It tastes best when prepared with ground soya meat and good with soya chunks too.
When you have a crowd for a meal, this could be one of the easiest and good tasting curry that one could prepare. It can be served with rice, roti, bread or paratha. It also goes well in lunch box. It can be refrigerated and frozen as well. If refrigerated use up within 2 days.
