Soya mince, a meat substitute made from soya beans. It can be used in various preparations and is very tasty, so try this Soya Mince and Pea Curry

Ingredients:

• 1 cup soya mince, soaked in boiling water for 30 minutes, then drained and set aside.
• 1 onion, finely chopped.
• 2 tsp ginger and garlic paste.
• 1 tomato, grated.
• 1 tsp masala.
• ½ tsp turmeric powder.
• Salt to taste.
• ¼ cup of peas.
• ½ tsp tomato paste.
• 2 cinnamon sticks.

Method:

Heat some oil in a pot.

Add the onion and cinnamon sticks, sauté till the onions are transparent.

Add the ginger and garlic and allow to fry for a couple of seconds.

Add the spices, grated tomato, and stir so that the spices coat the onions nicely.

Add a cup of water and the tomato paste, stir so the spices dissolve in the water.

Allow the water to come to a boil.

Add the mince and allow to cook for about 30 minutes, until the mince is almost soft. If need be, you can add a little more water so that the mince does not stick.

Add the peas and cook, till the peas are soft and all the water has been cooked away.
