Soya chunks is an excellent addition to our diet.These are odourless  food item,but this unique food is highly nutritional and full of rich proteins. Soya chunks easily available in packets,So very easy to get and great source of protein for vegetarians.Long back I have seen this recipe in tv show and I noted in a book( I have not started blog then).My first fav recipe in the TV  show...A great appetizer for everyone.Just vanishes within mins..Soya chunks and poha is a unique combo and great combo which yields a good taste.Here I'm posting soy chunks poha vada in BM#54 under the theme one bite appetizer..
