🌽 Crispy Corn Fry

A Perfect Evening Snack

Corn Fry is a simple, flavour-packed snack that’s crunchy on the outside and juicy inside. It’s easy to make, customizable, and works beautifully as a tea-time or evening snack.

📝 Ingredients

• Sweet corn – 4–6 cobs

• Salt – a pinch (for boiling/steaming)

• Refined sunflower oil – for frying

• Kashmiri chilli powder – 1 tsp

• spicy chilli powder - Home made – 1 tsp

• Turmeric powder – ½ tsp

• Chaat masala – 1 tsp

• Amchur powder – 1 tsp (optional)

• Lemon juice – ½ lemon (if chaat masala is unavailable)

• Parmesan cheese – as needed (optional)

• Ghee – 1 tsp (optional, for flavour)

• Fresh coriander leaves – finely chopped

• Thick curd (hung curd) – for dip

  
  

🔥 Step 1: Steam or Boil the Corn

Steam the corn cobs well using an idli steamer.
Alternatively, boil them in water with a pinch of salt until fully cooked and tender.

🔪 Step 2: Cut the Corn

Once cooled slightly, cut each corn cob vertically into 4–8 strips.
Do not separate the kernels — keep each strip intact.

🍳 Step 3: Fry the Corn

Heat refined sunflower oil until it is fully hot.
Carefully add the corn strips and deep-fry for about 10 minutes until lightly crisp.

👉 Note: Corn will not become extremely crunchy due to moisture.

Healthy option: Air fry until golden and lightly crisp.

🌶️ Step 4: Prepare the Seasoning

In a bowl, add:

• Kashmiri chilli powder

• Kanja milagai thool

• Turmeric powder

• Chaat masala

• Amchur powder

Mix everything well.
If you don’t have chaat masala, add ½ lemon juice instead.

🧂 Step 5: Toss the Corn

Remove the fried corn and place it in a mixing bowl.
Sprinkle the prepared seasoning evenly and toss well.

Add:

• Parmesan cheese (or any cheese of your choice)

• A little ghee for extra flavour (optional)

🌿 Step 6: Garnish

Finish with freshly chopped coriander leaves for freshness and aroma.

🥣 Step 7: Serve with Dip

Serve hot with thick hung curd or any dip of your choice.

✨ Final Result

Hot, spicy, juicy Corn Fry — perfect with chai or as a quick evening snack 🌽🔥
