Vegan Majjige Huli

Majjige huli(saucy yogurt with vegetables) is a classic recipe from South India.
I grew up eating Majjige huli with hot rice in Bangalore. Now, I'm a vegan and I make Majjige Huli with Soyogurt. The key to make delicious vegan Majjige huli is to use unsweetened soy yogurt. I use wildwood Soyogurt(high fibre unsweetened plain). This soyogurt is so much like Indian yogurt - a bit sour.

I made Majjige Huli by following Ramya's blog Mane Adige. The Majjige huli was so yummy.

Vegan Yogurt

I used to love yogurt during my pre-vegan days. I loved eating yogurt mixed with rice and pickles. In restaurants I always relished eating dahi vadas(deep-fried lentil dumplings).

Once I became vegan, I was not happy with the soy yogurt. All the soy yogurts which I tried were very sweet. I never cooked any Indian recipes which had yogurt in it because, of the sweet taste in yogurt.In short, I longed for soy yogurt which was a bit sour in taste, almost like the yogurt we get in India.

Recently I tried Wildwood Probiotic Soyogurt Unsweetned Plain. The yogurt was perfect! I love to eat it with rice and pickles. I have used this wonderful yogurt in making tasty mangalorean dishes -menthi tambli and spinach tambli. I'm so happy to find this great tasting soy yogurt.

Unfortunately this delicious yogurt is available only in selected stores across the country .I bought this soy yogurt in Whole Foods.
