I made this masala for having with Appam. This is a less spicy and simple to make recipe to be used as a filling for dosa and can be had with roti/naan also. trust me it is really worth trying
Ingredients required :
Potatos -3 nos
Sweet corn -1 cup
Onion -2 medium or 1 big
Garlic-5 cloves
Green chilli -3 slited lengthwise
ginger -1/2 inch size sliced thin
turmeric powder -1 tspn
Gharam masala (used the homemade one ) -1/2 tspn
Pressure cook all the ingredients with salt and the rest of the ingredients for 3-4 whistles till the potato is thoroughly cooked to soft. In a kadai heat some oil , add some mustard, saunf, 2-3 chopped small onions, 2 crushed garlic, few curry leaves and pour the cooked potato over this. Allow to cook till one boil and it is done.
Baby corns are nutritious vegetable that we often avoid in our list. This is very crispy and its very difficult to think about making a curry out of.
I have tried a few of baby corn recipes out of my crazy imaginations and will share with all of you here
Method:
Baby corn - 1 packet (6 corns)
Maida flour - 1 tbspn
Bread crumbs and oil as required
Make a paste of maida with salt , chilli powder (if you want) or can add chilly sauce, tomato sauce , garlic paste etc.. You can add the ingredients according to you taste for all these items..or can add anything extra also. The paste shouldnt be too thick or too runny
Now dip the corn one by one on this paste roll over bread crumbs. Fry in very hot oil for few second. take care not to charr the crumps. so turn it up and down in between
Enjoy with tomato sauce.

Experimented an easiest recipe to make chilli mushroom-babycorn without frying the mushrooms or baby corn and came out very nice. Can say very healthy in that way as the quantity of oil used is also less
Preparation time is less than 10 minutes
Recipe:
Mushrooms -200 gms slit into two halves
baby corn -5 nos chopped into fine bits
chilli powder -1 tspn
Onion -1 medium cubed
Capsicum -1 small or medium cubed
garlic -10 cloves squared
ginger -1/4 inch thinly chopped
soya sauce -1 tspb
tomato ketchup -1 tbspn
corn flour -2 pinches
food colour 1/4 pinch
salt as required
oil -just 2 & 1/2 tspn
Method:
---------
In a kadai dry saute the mushrooms and baby corns with some salt and 1 tspn chillipowder.( no oil and no water). keep on sauting for few seconds and u can see water oozing out of mushrooms. add ginger and garlic pieces now.allow the mushrooms and baby corn to get cooked in this water itself. don't add anymore water extra.allow all the water to get evaporated and keep on sauting in between.
once it is done add 2 & 1/2 tsbpn of oil on top of it. once it get heated add onion and capsicum and saute again. Add soya sauce now. add ketchup or chilli sauce also. mix very well. add food colour (optional if not particular on the looks) .
saute again till crisp. now sprinkle 2 pinches of corn flour on top and saute again. saute for some 2-3 minutes and garnish with spring onion and serve hot.
This is the recipe with a difference in preparation but no difference in taste. :)
Paneer and Baby corn can be combined together to make a yummy manjurian in a much healthier way. I have not fried the pieces before making this manjurian and thereby the quantity of oil used is just 2 tbpn.
Here goes the method. As usual my recipe this time is also very easy to make and is done in less than 5minutes time. Kids would love to finish the plate.
Paneer -200 gms packet
Baby Corn -4 nos
Cut both into square cubes
Onion -1 big
Capsicum -1/2 portion ( though I havent used in this now as it was not available in my kitchen)
Green chillies -2 slits ( if capsicum is there you can avoid this)
Garlic -10 cloves chopped
Soya sauce- 2tspn
Tomato sauce-1-2 tspn (depending on ur likeness for the sweety flavour)
chilli garlic sauce-1-2 tspn
Green chilli sauce- 1/2 tspn
Corn flour -3 tspn
water-4 tspn
Red chilli powder -1/4 tspn or red chilli paste
Pepper powder -1/2 tsp
In a pan heat some oil and saute the baby corn. till it is half done add onion, garlic and capsicum one by one. No need to cook too much. Just sauting is enough. Now add the sauces one by one. saute again. Salt is not required as the sauces themselves contain salt content in it. Now dissolve the corn flour in water and add to it. simmer the flame and again saute till dry and the sauces get coated over the vegetables. Finally add pepper powder and saute. Serve hot.
