Hello my Foodie Friends.....hope you all are keeping well. Do you love Street Food? Well, there are hardly any person who doesn't love Indian Street Food. There is so much of variety available in the street food that if we go from one region to another we can find a different variety of street food altogether.
The one thing apart from the regional street food which is common in every region is the Indo-Chinese cuisine. We all love it, isn't it! Whether it's a Chowmein, Chilli Chicken, Fried Rice or Manchurian we start drooling whenever we hear these names.
Every Restaurant, street side hawkers and even every household has its own variation of making any Indo-Chinese dish. Today's post is Soya Manchurian which is a very healthy Indo-Chinese dish.
We all know the benefits of including Soybean in our diet. Soybeans have a wealth of benefits, including their ability to improve the metabolism, help in healthy weight gain, protect heart health, defend against colorectal cancer, and reduce the effects of menopause. They improve digestion, promote bone health, protect against birth defects, increase circulation, decrease the risk of diabetes and generally tone up the body.
We all struggle to feed healthy to our kids. Since, kids love Indo-Chinese cuisine so you can prepare Soya Manchurian and offer them. I'm sure they will love it too. You can also serve it as a starter when you have guests coming your way.
