Soyabean Crisps

I love to snack while watching movie. This is a nice , yummy and crunchy snack and also most importantly, healthy.


This is a Tarla Dalal recipe with a little variation to suit my taste. I like it spicy so I added chili powder and chat masala too. But if you do not prefer spicy then you can just add salt as in the original recipe.




Ingredients:

  • Soya Beans - 1 cup
  • Turmeric Powder - 1/2 tsp
  • Salt - to taste
  • Red Chili Powder - to taste ( optional )
  • Chat Masala - to taste ( optional )
  • Oil - 1-2 tsp

Directions:

  • Soak the soya beans in water for about 2-3 hours. Drain and discard the water.
  • Add turmeric powder, salt and chili powder and chat masala to the soya beans, mix well and refrigerate overnight i.e about 6-8 hours.
  • Sprinkle oil to the beans and mix well.
  • Place the beans on a microwave safe plate and microwave for 5 minutes. Mix it in between after 2 and a half minutes.
  • If your plate is small, do it in batches, say, half at a time.
  • Let the soybeans sit for a while till they reach room temperature.
  • Store in air tight container and munch on them when u like.

  1. Do you get dried soyabeans at the Indian store? Or did you use the beans from Edamame?
