Baby corn-Capsicum Stir Fry Recipe
Yesterday I have been to farmers market (Rythu Bazar) here
- at mom’s place and found baby corns. There is something about baby corns that
- attracts me. According to me you can create some amazing dishes with baby corn
- with ease. The simple thing to remember while cooking baby corn is to retain
- the crunch. The crunchier the baby corn the tastier the dish.
- Holding a packet of fresh baby corn I thought of making Manchurian
- with it…but suddenly I dropped my plan and thought of making a simple stir fry
- out of it. I am not a huge fan of stir fries but now and then when I struck
- with ideas to plan a menu…I go with simple stir fries. Today all I need is to
- make a dal, jeera rice and stir fry with baby corn and capsicum to wind up my
- meal. Even my Lil’M likes baby corn so…I thought it will be a good choice to
- quick fix a simple menu with it.
- Once I have grilled the baby corn and capsicum to make this
- stir fry…but today I made it simple by microwaving the baby corn….and tossing
- it in garlic-soya sauce mixture. Baby corn was so crunchy and yummy that half
- of the fry went off as starter while I was still serving the food in plates….Check
- out the simple recipe with minimal and handy ingredients below….
