i have always been a huge fan of soya curry and it is one of the frequent gravy based curry i prepare at home. well, i have already posted quite a few sabzis in my blog using meal maker. but soya keema recipe was long due on me. as matter of fact, i was getting several requests to make a vegetarian version of keema recipe and i was always getting sidetracked. in fact, i always prepare this dish for my dinner meal and me and my husband thoroughly enjoy it with roti and chapati. i serve this sabzi especially for my dinner because of 2 reasons. one being rich in protein and making a complete meal for my dinner and second being easy and simple to make in no time. but few may indigestion problems with heavy protein in their diet and hence you may need to be careful with meal maker.

furthermore, i would like to add a few more tips and suggestions while making this soya keema recipe. firstly, i would heavily recommend to boil and rinse the soya granules thoroughly with water. this would ensure to remove all the necessary dirt and also to make it soft and spongy. secondly, you can also add peas to make keema for flavourful and attractive. lastly, if you are looking to have a gravy version of keema masala then feel free to add more water adjusting consistency as desired.
