What we need:-

1 1/2 cup soya mince

200 gm. Peas

2 medium onions

One fresh tomato

Juice of 1/2 lemon

3-4 large cloves of garlic

1/2 inch ginger

Oil

1 tsp ‘Paanch Phoron’

1-2 bay leaves

1 inch cinnamon stick

2 large cardamoms

5-6 cloves

A pinch of asafetida

1 tsp. turmeric powder

1/2 tsp. chilli powder

2 level tsp. coriander powder

5-6 black peppers

Garam masala powder

How we make it:-

 

Soak soya mince in boiling hot water for 30 minutes or so. Transfer to a sieve and rinse in running water. Grind onions, ginger and garlic in a food processor or chop finely. Chop tomatoes in small pieces. Heat oil in a pan. Add ‘panch phoron’, hing and all whole spices. Add onion, ginger, garlic mix and fry until lightly brown. Add ground spices and fry. Add tomatoes and fry until oil separates. Add soya mince and lemon juice, fry for a minute or two and cook with 1 cup of water. It takes 10-15 minutes to cook. Add peas and cook for a further 2-3 minutes. Fresh peas may take longer, so you may boil them first. Add salt. Add garam masala. Serve hot with roti or paratha.
