Baked Soya Pinwheels / Soya Bakarwadi


 This was a crunchy snack with the soya granules stuffing. I made it by baking without deep frying. It will be healthy snack to munch with the hot tea.

 It can also be served as a starter for parties.

Soya is a source of complete protein. A complete protein is one that contains significant amount of all the essential amino acids for the human body. Soya is a good source of protein for te vegetarians and vegans. Soy protein is the nutritional equivalent of meat , egg and casein for human growth and health. Consumption of soy may also reduce the risk of colon cancer , possibly due to th presence of sphingolipids.
