Equipment
Method
- Boil water, add 1/2 tsp salt and soak the soya chaap pieces in hot salted water for 8–10 minutes to soften them.
- Drain the soya chaap and squeeze out excess water gently. Place them in a mixing bowl.
- Add sliced cucumber, chopped capsicum and tomato to the bowl with soya chaap.
- In a small bowl whisk the yogurt with black pepper powder, cumin powder and a pinch of salt until smooth to make the dressing.
- Pour the yogurt dressing over the soya-vegetable mix. Toss gently to coat everything evenly.
- Taste and adjust salt if needed. Garnish with chopped fresh coriander leaves before serving.
Notes
Serve immediately for best crunch. You can refrigerate for 15–20 minutes for a chilled salad. Add chopped onions or mint for extra freshness if desired.
