Corn Cutlet

These crunchy corn cutlets are a good tea time snack. These can also be used in burgers. Here is the recipe I got from
Sanjeev Kapoor's 'Simply Vegetarian' cook book.
Ingredients:
Corn Niblets: 1 Cup
Onions: 2 medium Sized
Green Chillies: 3-4
Ginger: 1 small piece
Coriander Leaves: about 1/2 cup
Cumin Seeds: 1 spoon
Fennel seeds: 1spoon
Coriander Powder: 1 spoon
Garam Masala: 1 spoon
Turmeric Powder: 1 spoon
Gram Flour (Besan/Chickpea flour): 1/4 cup
Bread Crumbs:1/4 cup
Lemon Slices: 3-4
Chaat Masala: 1 spoon
Salt to taste
Oil
Preparation:

Pressure cook or boil the corn niblets in about 2 cups of water. Once done, drain the water out completely. Press
them with tissue paper to remove excess water.

Finely chop onions, green chillies, ginger and coriander leaves.

Roast gram flour in a pan until it gives a nice aroma.

Method:

Heat about 2tbsp of oil in a pan; add cumin seeds and fennel seeds.

Add onions and saut till they turn light brown.

Add turmeric powder, Coriander powder and Garam Masala powder. Stir to mix well. Add half of the cooked corn
niblets to this and saut till dry.

Remove from heat, cool it and grind it to a coarse paste in a mixer. Remove to a bowl.

To the above mixture, add the rest of the cooked corn niblets, coriander leaves and salt as per taste.

Also add gram flour, bread crumbs and mix well to form dough. Make cutlets out of them.

Heat sufficient oil and fry the cutlets till golden brown. Drain onto an absorbent kitchen towel.

Sprinkle lemon juice and chaat Masala and serve hot.
