Fried Baby Corn with Salt & Pepper


The rainy months bring an abundance of corn into the vegetable market. Corn is highly nutritious and can be enjoyed in many ways... roasted corn on the corb with salt, chilli and lemon rubbed onto it, steamed corn, baked corn, corn with methi as a vegetable, corn in salad and also in starters like canopies, corn and cheese keish etc. Here’s an easy baby corn recipe for a starter or side dish that you could easily put together and am sure will be a big hit with family and friends.
Ingredients:

• 1 packet baby corn
• 3 spring onions finely chopped
• 1 capsicum finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons corn flour or maida
• Oil for frying
• 1 tsp. Butter
• Salt and Pepper to taste
Procedure:
Make a thin batter of cornflour and water with a little salt. Dip each baby corn in the batter and deep fry in a kadai with hot oil over a medium flame till crisp and golden brown. Remove from oil and keep aside.

In a frying pan melt butter on a low flame, add spring onions and capsicums and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes. Add fried baby corn, salt and pepper and toss around. Remove from fire. Serve hot with Chillie sauce or Schezwan sauce.
