Masala corn fritters is a super easy and quick to make perfect snack to serve your guests when you have a time crunch . It is made by frying the corn kernels and then flavouring them with spice mixes.
, Lets get started and checkout the recipe. Cut the corn cobs a little less than a toothpicks length. I have not cut the cobs here though. Now we got to release the kennels from the cob. In order to release the kernels from the cobs, insert a toothpick the way I show you onto the corn cob and apply a little pressure sideways so that the corn kernels are released from the cob along with the tooth pick. Now lets move on to cooking the kennels.
Boil water in a large pan. Pop the corn kernels on to the water and boil them till they are softened which should take not more than two minutes. We ought to boil the corn kernels before deep frying them in oil to ensure that they do not explode while frying or else make use of a splatter screen in order to avoid spillage. Inside each kernel of corn is a tiny droplet of water surrounded by the hull. As the kennels get heated, the water turns into steam, which builds pressure inside the kernel which later explodes to release the pressure.Once the corn becomes soft, drain them using a colander on to a plate.
Heat oil in a deep pan for frying. When the oil turns hot, pop in the boiled kennels. Do not overcrowd the oil. Fry them till slightly golden and then drain on to an absorbent paper.
Now we got to prepare the spice mix..For that, take a bowl. Add in roasted and powdered cumin, salt, pepper powder, cajun spice powder, chilly flakes ,chat masala, dried mixed herbs and toss them well until the spices are well incorporated with the fried corn. Masala corn fritters is ready.
Along with the crispiness, what elevates Crispy Corn Recipe is its subtle taste which it derives from black pepper powder and salt. This is an excellent starter which you can serve at parties which can be made in an jiffy. So, guys, do try out this easy and simple to make snack and let me know how it turned out to be.
