I will start my blog with this simple soya recipe was created when we didn't have anything else to cook with.Personally I used to hate soya ,the bland soya chunk curry in our college mess was unpalatable.:I used to look down at the soya with arrrrgh not again!Asish(my husband) kind of likes soya,so we thought we will give it a try and this recipe was born.
