Crisp-fried Baby Corn

Sharing a highly loved finger-food today – Crisp-fried Baby corn. Finger-food is perfect for parties and when guests or friends are at home. Last week I shared my Tofu tikka with basil pesto which many of you have liked. So, moving forward with that category of food, I share today my version of fried baby corn. But make sure to serve this hot, tastes best when served immediately after frying.

Procedure:

  1. Cut the blanched baby corn vertically into 2 pieces. Set aside.
  2. In a bowl, mix together the cornmeal, corn starch, rice flour, garlic powder, turmeric powder, red chili powder, baking powder, salt and water. Combine well; you should get a thick paste-like consistency.
  3. Dip the baby corns in the prepared batter and coat them well.
  4. Deep-fry the baby corns in oil until they turn golden brown and crispy.
  5. Transfer to a kitchen cloth to remove any excess oil.
