BABY CORN KORMA/MASALA | BABY CORN RECIPES
(updated picture on 18-6-‘11)
INGREDIENTS
- Baby corn -- 12-15 nos.
- Garam masala powder -- 1/2 tsp(Optional)
- Red chilli powder or sambar powder – 1 tsp
- Turmeric powder -- 1/4 tsp
- Oil,ghee mixed -- 2 tblsp (or less according to your concern.)
- Coriander leaves -- for garnishing
- Onions -- 1 Big (fry in oil)
- Tomato -- 2 Medium
- Ginger -- a Small piece
- Garlic -- 2 small cloves
- Green chillies – 2-4
- Coconut -- 1 1/2 tblsp(optional)
- Cashew nut – 10-12 nos
- Fennel seeds -- 1/2 - 1 tsp
- Bay leaf – 1(optional)
- Elachi - 1
- Cinnamon - small piece
- Cloves – 2
Method
- Cut baby corn to your desired shape..and pressure cook for 3 whistles and keep aside.
- Fry the cubed onions in a tsp of ghee/oil and grind it along with tomatoes,green chillies,ginger and garlic.(you can also substitute ginger and garlic with 1 tsp of ready made ginger garlic paste...)
- Heat the kadai with oil,ghee and add the tempering items followed by the above ground paste..
- Add turmeric,salt and garam masala powder,red chilli powder and mix well.
- Fry it in low flame for 5-8 minutes or till the oil leaves the sides of the kadai..(can stir it occasionally ,but take care not to burn..)
- Mean while grind cashew,coconut and fennel seeds to a smooth paste and add it and fry till oil separates(2 mins).
- Add the cooked baby corn and add water/milk, little by little to make it to a gravy and bring to boil in medium low flame.No high flame as there are chances of curdling of milk.
- Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve with chapati or fried rice..
- You can also add panner cubes in this just like in Kribha's baby corn paneer curry...
- Add paneer just 1 minute before you put off the stove.
- If you are adding paneer, immerse paneer cubes in hot water and just the moment you are going to add,drain the water and add it to korma..! Do not boil after u add paneer for more time,just bring to boil.
You can also add crisp fried capsicum,onion and tomato at the end and garnish to get a restaurant taste and look. I tried so and took a picture the other day,so here’s an update…Enjoyed with roti…

Looks yummy Raks, love babycorn!
looks lovely raks. but why do u need to soak cashews in water for 3 hrs? just curious to know as i usually grind them to paste with other ingredients. does soaking in water for 3 hrs make any difference to the one which is not soaked?
the presentation is too good....sounds good
Looks yummy Raks. I get canned ones only. step by step pics are so good. Thanks for sharing.
Padma,Thanks for dropping here and thanx for the compliments over the dish...why dont you give it a try with the canned ones..:))
Namratha...Thanx
Dear sia,
I too used to grind cashews as such..but one of my friend Sangeetas kitchen said it will grind easily and smoothly if we soak and grind..and she told thats the way she does..After that I too followed that idea..!!But theres no harm in grinding without soaking too!!
Thanks Shathi..!!
wow that sure is a whole lot of spices, must taste yum :)

Baby corn korma looks nice. Even i make this dish but never used coconut.
Oh, I definitely have to try this. My husband dislikes baby corn, while the rest of us love it. Perhaps this way he would eat it, and we can enjoy ourselves without having to worry about him :-)
