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.
Serves: 2 |
Cooking time: 15 mins |
Ingredients:
Baby corn – 10-15 (blanched in hot water for 10 minutes)
Besan flour/chick-pea flour/Corn meal/makai ka atta – ¼ cup (I used cornmeal)
Corn flour/corn starch – 1 tsp
Rice flour – 1 tbsp
Water – 1/2 cup approximately
Garlic powder/paste – 1 tsp
Turmeric powder – a pinch
Red chili powder – 1 tsp
Baking powder – ½ tsp
Salt – to taste
Oil – to deep fry
Procedure:
- Cut the blanched baby corn vertically into 2 pieces. Set aside.
- 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.
- Dip the baby corns in the prepared batter and coat them well.
- Deep-fry the baby corns in oil until they turn golden brown and crispy.
- Transfer to a kitchen cloth to remove any excess oil.
- Serve hot with ketchup.
This is quite easy to make. I will surely make it this weekend.

Is makai ka atta Corn flour or is it something else?
It is not corn flour, it is corn meal, slightly coarse than corn flour/starch
