Soya Chunks Bhurji/Soya Matar Bhurji



For the day 2 recipe themed under bhurji recipe in BM# 62 is a healthy and protein packed soya chunks bhurji.
Soya chunks are a great alternate for chicken and its a good source of proteins.Though the soya chunks has an unpleasant smell and bland taste,with proper spices it tastes delicious.
Originally the bhurji is made with the soya granules,if not it can be made with the chunks.
Coming to the recipe I used the regular soya chunks and pulsed the cooked chunks in a blender to get a bhurji consistency.Also used some frozen green peas to make it colorful and tasty.This bhurji pairs well with rice and roti as well as stuffing for parathas and sandwich.
We had it with the store bought laccha paratha for our weekend brunch along with masala tea,it was so filling.

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.                                                                                                                                  ...
