How to Make Baby Corn Manchurian: 

1) Clean and cut the Baby corn into medium sized pieces. Keep aside.

2) Mix Corn flour, Rice flour, Maida, Baking Soda, red color (optional), salt and chopped Green

chillies with water just enough to make the batter as thick as dosa batter.

into heated oil and deep fry. Keep the fried Baby Corn aside.

Heat 2 tsp of oil in a pan. Add chopped Onions, Ginger Garlic paste and chopped Spring Onions

and fry till the Onions turn golden brown. Now add Green chillies and fry for a minute.

Then add Vinegar, Soya sauce, Ajino Moto, 1/2 cup of Tomato sauce and mix well with a ladle.

The masala mixture required for Baby Corn Manchurian is now ready.

5) Mix fried Baby Corn Florets with the Masala mixture. Mix them all well until all the florets

blend well with the Masala mixture.

If you prefer, garnish with chopped Coriander leaves.

The Baby Corn Manchurian is now ready to be served. Serve with your family favorite Tomato

Sauce.

Note:

a) I have avoided using red food color for my Baby Corn Manchurian preparation due to health

concerns. You can see from the photograph that the Corn Manchurian still looks good without

color and hence color is not really required.

b) I have heard from many that adding Ajino Moto (Tasting Salt) gives great taste to the Baby

Corn Manchurian. Ajino Moto can be used if the Baby Corn Manchurian is not going to be

tasted/consumed by pregnant women or toddlers.

water and salt and bring to boil.
