Soya Granules Curry

this is the product u will get in walmart in freezer section
first in hot oil add mustards,jeera,green chillies and onions after 5 mins add the veggie crumbles add salt and chilli powder and fry for 5 mins thats it it is good with chapathis
instant curry type annnamata

2. Contributor: Keerti
I do similar to what padmini said, but i also add tomato.. Just do it how u cook mutton kheema......Ok here you go...

First heat oil, add cumin seeds, Onions , green chilllies after sometime add Ginger garlic paste, Once onion becomes transparent and light brown in color add some Tomtato and let it cook , till tomatos become mushyy.. add chilli powder, salt and all masalas which ever u like.

in the mean while take this veggie Granules and wash them if you want and microwave it for sometime.

Once oil starts oozing from the curry add these Granules and cook till water evopartes and curry becomes close ( Sorry emmi rayalo teliyaledu... Kura deggariki aypoyaka ... ) . switch of the stove.

It goes well with Chapathi and even Ok with Rice.

Normal chuncks tho kuda cheypchu... Just soak normal chunks and then microwave them... And konchem cold water flow avvaninvandi... Till the smell goes... And squeeze the chunks and wash them again... Cut into small pieces and cook like above.

Thai Red Curry

1. Contributor: COOOOOOOOOOL....
didnt try but saw dis few days back,,,


2. Contributor: $u(h!tRa
Thai red curry ki main paste ee kada anni ready unte simple.
-Take a pan add oil,then add in the paste fry for a while until it releases nice aroma
-then add coconut cream[top layer of coconut milk u will c if u carefully open the tin ] this method adds little more flavour to the curry.
-let it fry for few more mins when u c the cream splits nd combines withthe paste now itz time to add ur vegetables.
Note:
[ I like my veggies to be cooked in the same pan so that it enhances the taste kani heavy anipisthadi thineppudu or for time saving u may preboil ur veggies nd can be added in tihs with the stock]

-if itz raw veggies u may need to fry a little while for2-3 mins if boiled veggie r added couple of mins is fine then stir in rest of coconut milk would love to add tiny bit of sugar in this stage,. let it boil nd simmer for the consistency u need.thats it heavenly thai curry is ready.garnish with coriander
note:for adjusting spice u may add chilles when the curry is boiling or if u think the paste is mild add to the oil in the first stage.
