BABY CORN FRY(BABY CORN GOLDEN FRY RECIPE)-BABY CORN 65 RECIPE

I tasted this baby corn fry/baby corn 65 in a banquet. From then, I wanted to try it at home. Its a great starter recipe for lunch as well as dinner. Yesterday Raksha’s friends came home for lunch. So I prepared this fry along with veg fried rice, fruit custard and choco chip cookies.

All the kids relished this fry with tomato sauce and there was not even a single piece left for us. It was very crispy, mildly spiced and the smell of masala was awesome. Everyone loved it. Do try this for your kids. U can make it as an evening snack too ! But one thing , you should eat it hot to enjoy its crispness and flavour!.

After one hour, take the baby corn pieces, dip in bread crumbs well and deep fry in hot oil. While deep frying, do in medium flame and make sure you do not flip the baby corn as soon as you put in oil. Let it be in oil for a minute. Then flip the other side and cook for one more minute. After it turns golden brown, remove and drain in a tissue.
