looks good and yummy but its a ltl hard to eat it wen its full round in shape so i jus made an alteration. after boiling squeeze out the water and put in mixie and give it a turn. so it becomes like a keema. now continue with the process and enjoy it.

i enjoyed the dish a lot but i made a small alteration by making the soya chunk in to keema after squeezing the excess water from it i gave it a short grind in the mixie then continued with the process.
