One of the most favourite side dish with briyani is Veg Kurma.This kurma taste awesome and quite spicy.My daughter will not eat spicy briyani. So i always make it less spicy.To compensated it, i will make the spicy side dish.This kurma goes well with Paratha and Idiyappam also.If you want less spicy Kurma Please check here.

Grind the Roasted gram dal/cashew nuts,coconut and fennal seeds into a fine paste with enough water.
Finally add the Coconut paste and soaked soya chunk into it.If you want thin gravy you can add a cup of water at this stage and let it cook for few minutes.
