Mumbai 07 August 2016: Soya chili is one of my favourite vegetarian dish. It is a brilliant substitute for Chilli Chicken and tastes really awesome and tasty. This Indian Chinese fusion recipe is made of soyabean chunks or nuggets. this dish is cooked with few masalas and different sauces. One interesting fact about soya is that soya has more protein than chicken. Soya chili tastes the best when served with fried rice. Soya chili can either be prepared dry or with gravy both taste super nice. Soya dish is very healthy.
