Soya Chaap Paneer Masala for Diwali Celebration

Soya Chaap Paneer Masala/ 

Soya Chaap Side Dish With Cottage Cheese
For 
Diwali Celebration

Hi Friends,

Hope you all enjoyed Diwali. I enjoyed a lot with my family. Made  Rangoli, lit diyas, did pooja, ate lots of sweets, enjoyed crackers although i was scared of the pollution because of crackers, as polluted fog already grabbed Delhi which is a very dangerous sign and can cause highly dangerous Acid Rain. Delhi Govt is trying to spread awareness regarding this and requesting people to stop polluting their environment. So i request all of you wherever you live, just try to make your environment pollution free.

Rangoli I made on Diwali

Now without delay to today's recipe. One more addition to my Most popular Soya Chaap recipes. Now you are more aware about SOYA CHAAP. If not then Read this. You can buy soya chaap from here. Earlier you enjoyed Soya Chaap Dry, Soya Chaap Chaat, Soya Chaap Gravy and Soya Chaap Sandwich. Now this is one another delicious and crowd pleaser recipe. This one is a semi gravy dish. It has soya and paneer means more nutrition also. I made them Carrot Rice and combo was super hit at my home. Everybody loved it. Color combination of both (carrot rice and  chaap) was so appealing. I recommend you to give it a try.

Soya Chaap Masala/ 

Soya Chaap dry Side dish 

Hi Friends,

Hope you all enjoyed weekend. If you are new to my blog then see details of Soya Chaap here. Earlier i posted my Soya Chaap Sabzi Gravy. Which was a huge hit. Yesterday i made this Soya Chaap Dry Masala.  It came out so delicious. It was over within few minutes and i regretted later that i used only 1 kg chaap for this, it should be at least 3 kg's as my kids and husband were asking for more and more and at the end i shared my plate with my son as he was asking for more. 

I made chaap masala, Chatpate Rajma, Vegetable Salad, Boiled Rice and Chapaati. Its great dish If you are organizing party or want to cook for your loved one, then Please try this once, i bet you will not be disappointed. It is excellent for the guests who prefer non-vegetarian dishes. Somebody told me it looks and taste like non-veg. You can experiment with your favorite masala in it. I am planning to try it with sambhar masala, wait for new version of this yummy dish. Till then try this dry masala and watch your family enjoying it.
