Ingredients

•     2 cups frozen sweetcorn (If using canned corn instead, wash & drain very well first)
•     1/2 cup course corn meal
•     2 tablespoons rice flour
•     1 chopped green chili; adjust to taste
•     2 teaspoon finely chopped ginger
•     2 tablespoons chopped cilantro (hara dhania)
•     2 teaspoon lemon juice
•     1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds (jeera)
•     1/2 teaspoon salt
•     2 teaspoons oil

Cooking Method

• Thaw the corn in hot water and drain. Blend the corn until the texture is creamy and coarse. A food processor makes this job very easy.
• Add all the ingredients to corn; corn meal, rice flour, chili, cilantro, ginger, lemon juice, cumin seeds, and salt; and mix it well.  The mixture should be the consistency of thick batter.  Add a little water if needed.
• Heat a heavy non stick skillet on medium heat and grease the skillet generously.
• Drop about 2 spoons of batter to make four to five patties into the skillet and flatten with the greased back of the spoon lightly, making the patties about 1/4 inch thick and two to three inches circle.
• Cook for about two minutes until the bottom turns golden brown. Flip over and cook from other side; both sides of the patties should be cooked until golden brown.
• Serve them hot or at room temperature… they taste delicious!
