About Baby corn masala

Baby corn masala is a rich gravy to pair up with roti, chapathi, pulao. It can be called as baby corn butter masala. Baby Corn is a crunchy and versatile vegetable that gets easily blended with any masala / gravy. I know this baby corn gravy would win hands down while the gravy was boiling itself as the lil one came running to me asking “amma enathu cooking supera vasanai varuthu”. And she loved the gravy that she was licking the plate and now I have started making this often.

Ingredients

  • Baby corn : Choose tender juicy baby corn.
  • Onion tomato base : Onion and tomatoes are sauted and grind to form a smooth velvety base for this gravy.
  • Dairy : Milk and fresh cream are added to make the gravy rich and creamy. Butter is added for more flavour.
