Soya Bean Rice / Soya Rice

Soya bean rice, it’s a healthier variety made with rice. There are many types of rice dishes like tamarind rice, ghee rice, lemon rice etc.. Soya bean rice, I could say that this recipe is far healthier than the rest as soya is considered to be a source of complete protein, amongst many others. Good for vegetarians and also for the people who want to reduce the amount of meat they eat, as soya protein can be a good substitute for animal products.
