Make the soy curls
– Rehydrate the soy curls, then squeeze out as much water as possible and lay on a towel to dry out. Then create a slurry with the spices and marinate soy curls in the slurry for as long as possible. When ready to cook, add to a frying pan (you may need to do this in batches so they have enough room to breathe) and cook until they look tasty!
