Baby Corn Fritters

These Spicy Crispy Baby Corn Fritters / Pakoda’s are my favorite snack to make any time. Just a few ingredients from the pantry are enough to make this crispy, spicy and tasty golden fried baby corn fritters within 20 minutes.

Baby Corn Fritters are made by deep-frying the baby corns dipped in flour and spices batter. Just make the batter and whenever you are ready to eat just dip and fry. It is the simplest and non-fussy starter ever.

Recently we went for the corn picking with my kid where we have learned that these miniature sizes of baby corn are nothing but the immature ears from the regular-sized plant. I always thought that this baby corn grows in the dwarf corn plants. I was wrong, thanks to the field trip where we have learned a lot about growing and harvesting corn.

Shopping at the farmers market, not only gives us access to the best tasting produce that is in season, picked at its peak of flavor, with the shortest amount of travel time between the farm and you but it gives us most importantly, connection. Nothing can beat cooking fresh veggies directly from the farm.

They are supreme in magnesium, vitamin A, iron, and phosphorous. Along with it in contrast to fully developed corns, they have minimum starch content which makes it light and healthy. The baby corn is not only rich in fiber but also stimulates digestion and cure anemia which is one of the most commonly found conditions in a middle-aged woman

Everyone young and old just loves these fritters. Its the perfect monsoon snack to be served with ginger tea. Serve the fritters as tea time snack or party starters with some dip of your choice. You cannot stop at one. seconds and thirds are sure. They are just so addictive.
