Garlic Babycorn & Fantastic Four Meme
This is a very tasty chinese dish. It can be served as a side dish with noodles, fried rice or pulao. Or it can also be served as a snack for parties! I have garnished it with home-grown spring onions.
Ingredients:
Babycorn -200 gm
Onion -1 chopped
Garlic -2 tbsp chopped
Egg -1 beaten
Red chilly sauce -2 tbsp
Tomato sauce -2 tbsp
Pepper powder -1\4 tsp, 1\4 tsp
Sugar -1\4 tsp, 1\4 tsp
Aginomotto -1\8 tsp, 1\8 tsp
Salt -1\4 tsp, 1\4 tsp
Corn flour -2 tbsp
Maida -2 tbsp
Spring onions -1 tbsp chopped
Oil -1 tbsp, and for frying
Method:
Slice the babycorns slantwise. In a bowl, mix egg, corn flour, maida, salt, sugar,pepper powder and aginomotto, adding a little water. Add the babycorns and mix. The batter should coat them well. Fry them in oil till golden brown. Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a pan. Fry the onions and garlic till it the onion turns light brown. Add red chilli sauce, tomato sauce, salt, sugar, pepper powder and aginomotto. Mix well and add the fried babycorns. Fry for a minute. Garnish with spring onions and serve hot!
