Instructions

Grating Corn for Bhutte Ka Kees:

1) Start by removing the husks from 3-4 sweet corn cobs.

2) Using a large grater, grate all of the corn off of the cobs and collect all of the grated corn and corn milk in a bowl.

PRO TIP: Without a grater, cut the corn off the cob with a knife ( or use canned corn ), add the kernels to a food processor, and grind them coarsely.

3) Set the grated corn and juice aside.

How to Make Bhutte Ka Kees:

1) In a large pan, heat 1 Tbsp of ghee or oil over a medium / low flame. Add 1 pinch of asafetida (hing).

2) Add ¼ teaspoon mustard seeds.

3) Once the mustard seeds crackle, add ½ teaspoon cumin seeds and allow them to crackle as well.

4) Add 1 teaspoon of finely chopped ginger, 1 green chili (finely chopped) and 4-5 curry leaves (chopped). Saute for about 30 seconds.

5) Add ¼ teaspoon turmeric powder and ¼ teaspoon Kashmiri red chili powder. Mix well.

6) Next, add the grated corn prepared earlier.

7) Mix thoroughly and saute the Bhutte Ka Kees for 2 to 3 minutes.

8) Add ½ cup milk or water, depending on your preference. Mix thoroughly.

PRO TIP: For a vegan version of this recipe, use water or a non-dairy milk alternative!

9) Add 1-2 pinches of salt, to taste.

10) Cover the pan and simmer for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally. The corn mixture will thicken.

11) Once the Bhutte Ka Kees is at a consistency you prefer, turn off the heat and transfer to serving bowls.

12) Garnish with fresh grated coconut, chopped coriander leaves and a squeeze of lemon juice.

13) Serve hot & enjoy!
