Deep fried crispy soya chunks
A fan of Soya chunks? Yes….. Oh come on, give me a high five!! We all belong to the same group. Not a great fan??? Oh…I bet you will make this again just for the crispy crunchy bite of protein again.
I am called the Soya girl of my family. My cousins know that better and I can visualize my cousins giggling reading this. Just for the fact that I love Soya soo much and this was the first thing that I learned to cook right from my preteens and still cooking, I am being called so. Give me everyday and I can eat it with no complaints… That is SOYA for me. This is a replica of my Chicken Red Stones recipe , but the vegetarian version of it.
