Soya Chunks Fry/Varuval - Dry Version


As soya chunks is a great source of protein I try to include in our diet atleast once in a week either in a one pot meal or kurma.
This version of fry is slightly dry version and usually I make it when I ran out of veggies to accompany with the seasoned dhal and rice or variety rice.
Here I used the mini chunks,if you are using the bigger chunks then cut into two and use it to get the flavors incorporate well.Lets move on to the recipe........................................

Vegetable Biriyani - Pressure Cooker Method

Coming to day 3 of Blogging Marathon#62 under the theme quick dishes I am sharing a one pot meal.This biriyani can be made in 30 minutes if the veggies are chopped and kept or even frozen veggies can also be used. As I have the habit of chopping veggies for the next day cooking this takes only 20-25 minutes of cooking.Also I use the boiling hot water to cook the rice faster.When the rice is cooking in the pressure cooker you can make either a simple raita or an egg omelette to pair up with this biriyani.                                                                                                                                  ...
