i make this recipe more liking a stuffing than subzi for my daugthers tiffin. I simply stuff it into rotis or sometimes between bread slices and toast them. any form it tastes great. but sania (my daughter) does not like so much of soya so i make it with half grated paneer/ potato and half soya granules. i feel this is the best way to sneak in calcium, protein in kids diet as soya is rich in many nutrients.
