Tofu Masala Curry
This was my today's breakfast.Two pulkas,2 tomato slices with Tofu curry.Sounds healthy! Yeah :-) It is said that, always breakfast should be heavier than lunch and dinner.Lunch should be more than dinner in amount and dinner should be less or lighter than previous two.Always the breakfast should contain more carbohydrates to give a good kick for rest of the day.Breakfast like chapathis,parotha,idli or fruits always preferable.Here I gave chinese touch to the indian tofu curry, which can go well with chapathis and rice.Here comes the recipe.
