This kind of kurma is served with Chapathi in Hotels, very flavorful and delicious kurma. Here, in US, most of the Indian restaurants don't serve this kind of kurma for rotis but in one of the local restaurant near to my house, they had Chapathi Kurma in their menu, they served chapathi & vegetable Kurma exactly the same way how they serve in Vegetarian Hotels in Tamil Nadu for Chapathi. The kurma was so flavorful, spicy and brought the memories of my home town Lakshmi hotel.

Tindora Nutrela Sabzi | Tindora Soya Chunks Sabzi | Nutrela Sabzi with Tindora

Today's recipe is a very healthy and filling sabzi using tindora and nutrela(soya chunks). I got this recipe from my neighbor Aunt and slightly tweaked to my taste. Aunty makes such a healthy and interesting sabzi with unique combo of veggies. I loved this Nutrela and Tindora combo, this sabzi is full of protein, fiber and very filling side that pairs well with Phulka. One or two phulka is more than enough for a meal along with 1/2 cup of this sabzi. I did not use tomato in this recipe and instead used curd/yogurt. If you want to make it Vegan, you can use 1/4 cup of finely chopped tomato or even skip tomato and curd and make it plain sabzi like Aunt's recipe.
