#CA26 - Protein rich, healthy and delicious, this Soya Nuggets Curry makes for a perfect side dish with either chapattis, jeera rice, steamed rice, plain biryani or pulao.
It is a great substitute to meat and tastes just as yummy as any mutton curry. Make them more appetizing by adding some green peas.
