BABY CORN MANCHURIAN – TRIED,TASTED

             My kid loves baby corn a lot! So I am always in search for recipes using baby corn. I have tasted baby corn manchurian in restaurants and always wanted to try at home! When I googled for images,I got attracted by the picture of Nag’s Baby corn Manchurian. So I decided to try and she too have adapted the recipe from her sister,so double the assurance. I already once have tried Gobi manchurian and today I tried the baby corn version. Since it was tasting awesome,I thought I will have this recipe in my blog too..:)

            Since I wanted my baby corn in a softer side,I just pressure cooked it till 3 whistles. Other wise I followed her recipe,other than few measures that I changed according to my taste. I did used a sprig of cilantro leaves,since I like it that way.
