Recipe
1
Grate the fresh sweet corn cobs using a medium grater to extract a coarse, juicy corn mixture.
2
Heat ghee in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium flame and add mustard seeds and cumin seeds until they crackle.
3
Add the asafoetida, green chillies, and grated ginger, sautéing for a minute until aromatic.
4
Lower the heat, add turmeric powder and red chilli powder, stirring quickly so the spices do not burn.
5
Add the grated corn to the pan and mix well, sautéing on medium-low heat for 6-8 minutes until cooked and slightly thickened.
6
Gradually pour in the milk while stirring continuously to blend it smoothly into the corn.
7
Season with salt, cover the pan, and simmer on low heat for 8-10 minutes until the corn absorbs the milk and turns soft.
8
Remove from heat, mix in the lemon juice, and serve hot garnished with fresh coconut and chopped coriander leaves.
