#RAM - Soya 65 is a vegetarian twist to the classic Chicken 65, a very popular South Indian snack. It is a very simple and an easy recipe that is prepared with soya nuggets / chunks. This yummy snack is a great Ramadan recipe and goes well as a tea-time snack or as an appetizer with mayonnaise-tomato sauce combo. The texture is crisp on the outside and soft inside. The marination in this recipe is that of some basic spices like red chili powder, coriander-cumin powder, corn flour, rice flour, ginger-garlic paste, lime juice, etc. I have also added some sambar powder, curry leaves and fresh chilies for some extra flavor.
