Soybean Subji a la Slow Cooker

Soybeans are rich in protein. They are known as meat without bone. Yesterday I made subji using dried soybeans. I forgot to soak the beans overnight. So, I just soaked them in a hot pack container for an hour and cooked the beans in crock pot. In about 6 hours the subji was done and it tasted yummy. We had it with aaloo parntha.

Ingredients:
1 Cup dried soy beans, soaked for an hour in a thermos (use hot water)
1 of each cinnamon stick, clove, and black cardamom
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 inch ginger, minced
2 green chili, slit
1 Onion, chopped
1 large tomato, chopped
1/2 teaspoon cumin-coriander powder
1 teaspoon goda masala
1/2 teaspoon red chili powder
salt to taste

Method:
1. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a pan to medium heat. Add cinnamon, clove and cardamom. Add ginger, garlic, and chili. Give it a quick stir. Add onion and cook for 2 minutes; add tomato and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in cumin-coriander powder, goda masala, chili powder and salt. Stir in soybeans.
2. Pour the bean mixture into slow cooker. Pour enough water and set it on high for 5 hours or until soybean is soft. Serve hot with roti or paratha.
