Sweet Corn Cutlets/Patties/Fritters

It’s a famous snack in south India. I have used roasted gram powder; it makes this recipe more crispy and tasty. It’s a healthy recipe, that I’m sure will be loved by one and all.

To make this recipe, I used American Sweet Corn. The corns impart a sweetish taste to the cutlet. But you could also use the normal corn.

I have used corn flour. Along with bread, mashed potatoes also could be used. I personally wanted it only to be full of corn and no potatoes. So I did not add any potatoes. Alternatively, you could also use bread crumbs to bind the corn cutlets.

Ingredients
Sweet corn – 1 (Big)
Chopped Onion – 1 (Big)
Chopped Ginger – 3 tsp
Red Chilli Powder – 2 tsp
Chopped coriander – ¼ cup
Corn Flour – 4 tsp (or) bread crumbs – 4 tsp
Rice Flour – 5 tsp
Roasted gram powder – ½ cup
Salt to taste
Oil as required
Method
Pressure cook sweet corn with little bit salt. Drain water, transfer the sweet corn to a mixer grinder, then add ginger garlic paste, red chilli powder, and little bit salt and grind it to a coarse paste. Don’t add water.

Take roasted gram, and grind it separately in a blender.

In a medium bowl, add chopped onion, ginger, coriander leaves, corn paste, rice flour, roasted gram powder, and then mix it well until smooth dough is formed.

Take the medium size ball from the mixture. Flatten the ball on the palm of your hand. Give the cutlet a rectangle shape (your wish) and dip in the corn flour.

Heat oil in a pan, and fry them till crispy and golden brown on both sides. Serve them hot with tomato ketchup or ranch.
