Instructions
 

Prepare the Baby Corn:

  • Wash the baby corn thoroughly.
  • Cut the baby corn into round pieces. You can also cut them lengthwise into smaller pieces.

Marinate the Baby Corn:

  • In a bowl, add the cut baby corn.
  • Add turmeric powder, coriander powder, chaat masala, asafoetida powder, chilli powder, garam masala powder, and salt.
  • Add the crushed ginger, garlic, and green chilli paste.
  • Add chopped coriander leaves.
  • Mix everything well.

Add Flours:

  • Add cornflour, rice flour, and besan to the marinated baby corn.
  • Mix well.
  • Add a very small amount of water, just enough to bind the mixture. Mix well to ensure the baby corn is coated.

Fry the Baby Corn:

  • Heat oil in a pan on medium flame. The oil should be hot but not smoking.
  • Carefully add the coated baby corn pieces to the hot oil, a few at a time.
  • Fry them, stirring occasionally, until they turn golden brown and crispy.
  • Once fried, remove them from the oil and drain any excess oil.

Serving Suggestion (Optional):

  • In a bowl, take the fried baby corn.
  • Add chopped onion and chopped tomato.
  • Sprinkle some chaat masala and chilli powder on top.
  • Mix well and serve.
  • These fried baby corn pieces are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and not oily.
