Soybean Curry Recipe

Soybean Curry Recipe:

Soybean is a rich source of protein,so is a good choice for those who do not prefer meat or egg.It is low in cholesterol and sodium,and high in dietary fiber.100 grams of soybean only has 173 calories.Soybean curry is cooked all over India in different ways,but the spices that we use are almost the same.Curry leaves are also used to give flavor but in this recipe for a change I am not using them :),if you are a die hard fan of curry leaves,you can use it anyways.Try the recipe at home and I am sure you will like it .HaPpY CoOkInG :)
