Soya Granules Masala
When my hubby came back from Mumbai after his school and college get together meet, he got some fresh Mumbai ladi pav. After making some Vada pav for dinner last night, I made these vegetarian Keema curry with soya granules which goes very well with these pav.

- Soak the soya granules in hot water for 10-15 minutes.
- Now drain out the water from the soaked soya granules.
- Heat oil in a pressure cooker and add the cumin seeds.
- When they splutter, add the chopped onion, ginger, garlic and green chillies.
- Saute till they become soft and translucent.
- Now add turmeric powder, red chilli powder and coriander powder.
- When the raw smell of the masala goes off, add the chopped tomatoes and cook till the tomatoes become soft and mushy.
