…..YUPS!!! It is this easy and quick to put together this dish!

Although I used only 1 pepper, the amount you use will depend on the spice level of the pepper. If you really want a spicy dish, you can taste it while cooking and add cayenne pepper if the raw pepper is not hot enough or add more raw pepper.

Be sure to soak the soya chunks and squeeze the excess water from them prior to use. If you happen to forget that you left them soaking don’t worry, they will not get soggy.
