Cookd masalas for baby corn
Method
Slit the baby corn in 2, and then cut them into 1-inch pieces.
Coat the baby corn in 2 tbsp cornstarch, maida, ½ tsp salt and chilli powder. Sprinkle a few drops of water, to help the flour coat the baby corn pieces.
Deep fry in oil until golden. Set them aside.
In another pan, heat 2 tbsp oil and fry the chopped garlic and ginger. Add diced onion and capsicum. Cook them for 1 minute.
Add the soy sauce, red chilli sauce, tomato ketchup, pepper powder and ½ tsp of salt. Add ¼ cup of water and cook it for 2 minutes.
Mix ½ tbsp of cornstarch with 2 tbsp of water and pour this paste into the pan. This will help to get a thick and glossy sauce.
Immediately add the fried baby corn and mix. Turn off the heat and serve hot.

Great recipe! Tweaked it a bit by adding some jeera powder and garlic powder for the corn marinade :)
