WYSIWYG in this recipe: three ingredients – butter, soy sauce, fresh baby corn – come together to give this delicious snack.
Corn
Pineapple Sweet Corn Rice
Pineapple sweet corn rice doesn’t just taste delicious, it’s also a great way to finish off leftovers – boiled rice from last night’s dinner, sweet corn you did not add to that stir fry, the big chunk of pineapple sitting in your fridge – use them all in this recipe.
Indo-Chinese Chili Garlic Mixed Vegetables
A variety of vegetables go into this Indo-Chinese stir-fry recipe that’s great on the side with chapatis, noodles or fried rice. Chili garlic mixed vegetables is cooked on high heat (using the Chao technique, or so Wikipedia tells me), which retains the texture and color of the vegetables. The dish gets its zing – and its name – from the pre-made chili garlic sauce that’s added to it.
Corn with Spinach and Cheese
Corn on the cob is so good boiled, I mostly have it without taking it through any elaborate "treatment" routine. A little salt, a little chili powder, a dash of lime juice – rub it on and bite directly off the cob – that’s my usual mode of having boiled corn.
Then again, there is something to be said for the occasional exoticization.
Tomato Baby Corn Grilled Sandwich
I love grilled sandwiches. They have become something of a staple for my weekend breakfast. The sandwich filling varies depending on my mood and the contents of my fridge/pantry – mashed potatoes, paneer slices, the vegetable side-dish from last night’s dinner. This tomato baby corn filling, spiked with Italian spices, is one of my reigning favorites.
Mushroom Fried Rice
Leftover boiled rice gives us plenty of opportunity for reshaping into new avatars, doesn’t it? I had a tempting pack of button mushrooms with me and used it for this mushroom fried rice tonight.
