I have used capsicum to add flavor. Veggies like carrots, peas, potatoes or sweet potatoes go well with baby corn. Fistful of spinach/palak or methi leaves can also be used to add nutrition. If using potatoes or sweet potatoes from cold storage, i suggest par boiling first otherwise they may not get cooked well.

How To Make Baby Corn Fry
I prefer to use baby corn straight away without boiling first as we like them crunchy. If you prefer soft baby corn then, boil the cut baby corn in water for sometime until partially soft.
- Heat a pan with oil, add cumin, let them splutter. Add grated ginger or ginger garlic paste. Fry till it begins to smell good.
- Add onions, fry till lightly pink.
- Add baby corn, veggies of your choice, turmeric, salt. I used capsicums along with baby corn. Fry for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Cover and cook on a low flame. Keep stirring occasionally to prevent burning. If needed sprinkle some water, do not pour lot of water.
- While the baby corn cooks, powder pepper corn and saunf. If using garam masala , just skip this step.
- When the baby corn is cooked fully, add leafy greens like methi/spinach or just curry leaves or coriander leaves and then the spice powder.
- Fry for 2 to 3 minutes or till the leaves wilt off and the spice powder smells good. Baby corn fry is ready, serve with rice or roti. Related Recipes
