It was one of those days when I was not in a mood to prepare an elaborate dinner. Luckily I had soaked some soy beans soaked overnight. With that little advance planning this dish was made real quick and was sumptuous. With no extra masala added, this recipe can bring out all the natural flavors very nicely. Pressure cooker is recommended for this cooking. Not only does it retain all the nutrients but it also helps in cooking the soy beans thoroughly. I warmed up some slices of sourdough bread to go with this subzi.
