Fill a large pot half way with water and add 500gms of soya chunks to it. Let the water boil for a good 15-20min allowing the soya chunks to soften and cook through out. Once they're soft and can pierced into with a fork take them out in a colander, pouring out all the water they were boiled in. Leave them in the colander for a while allowing them to cool off.

Making the Masala for the Soya Chunks:

In a large pan add 3 tablespoons of oil/ghee, once it's hot add 1 teaspoon (flat) of jeera and let it simmer for a minute or two. Add 2 large diced onions and let them cook until pink/golden, add 2 large cloves of garlic paste to the onions and let all the ingredients cook.
