My daughter's  friend 's  mom usually prepare this  kind of rice. I want  to try  this , Yesterday when I google something , i came across  this soya chunks rice, Tried  my hand and  got a  good comments  from the family members too. Today I tried  in layering them in pressure cooker and done in 10 mins. with very less oil & ghee .
Ingredients :
Soya  chunks  = 2  cups
Basmati Rice - 2 cups (Today I used  ordinary raw rice, no stock of basmati rice)
Salt  - to taste
vegetables  - carrot, capsicum , beans ( i used   little  carrots  only)
 Onion  - 2  sliced
Garam masala - 1 tsp
Ginger garlic paste - 1/2 tsp
 jeeragam , saunf  - 1/2 tsp
 red  chilly powder  - 1/2 tsp
 oil+ ghee  - 3 tsp
 clove - 1
Coriander leaves - to garnish


  Method :
 Soak the soya chunks  in hot water for 5 mins  and  drain and wash the chunks in cold water  2 times  and squeeze the water completely.
 In a   pressure cooker add the ghee+ oil , add jeera, saunf  , clove ,1 bay leave,then layer onion  sliced  , next  layer  ginger garlic paste , red chilly powder , then nicely cut vegetables with  a  pinch of salt spinkled  , and sprinkle garam masala, next layer   soaked basmati/ raw rice   sprinkle  salt ,  add 2  cups of water slowly by the side without disturbing the layers ,cook for  2 whistles  by closing the lid ( just  10 mins ). Then open the lid and garnish with fresh coriander leaves  and  enjoy the soya chunks rice. Soya is good for health , we can use  in kanji maavu /  adding  with  wheat flour  to prepare chapathi .
