  • Heat oil in a pan and add soya chunks pieces in batches. In every batch add curry leaves along with soya chunks. Deep fry the soya until it's done. Don't overfry. It would turn hard, and would be difficult to chew.

Notes

  • I always start with frying single soya piece to adjust the salt and then start frying in batches.
  • Make sure soya pieces are not overcooked. It makes it hard.
