How to make Amritsari Soya with Kulcha?
In a muslin cloth, add tea powder, cinnamon, cardamom, and clove. Tie it up into a potli.
Boil water in a pan with some salt. Add the masala potli into the water and let it simmer for a few minutes.
Add the soya chunks to the boiling water and let it boil for 5-6 minutes. Transfer the chunks to a bowl of room temperature water and then squeeze out the excess water from the chunks.
