Makka Garelu or Corn Vada

Makka garelu is one of my favorite snacks. We can make many varieties with this corn. It has a distinct taste. It can be preserved about 2days. If u prepare this snacks on any rainy day, u will definitely enjoy it. It is a mouth watering dish. Please try it if u haven't. Here is the recipe for it.

Ingredients:

Corn/Sweet corn/frozen corn- 2 cups

Salt- for taste

Sugar- 2tbsp or for taste

Red chillies- 6 no

Jeera- 1tsp

Onion- 1 big

Cilantro- 2tbsp

Curry leaves- 8 no

Garlic- 3 big cloves

Preparations:

1. Chop the onion, cilantro, curry leaves very finely.

Method:

1. In a blender, add corn, sugar, salt, jeera, garlic, red chillies, add little water and grind as a coarsed thick batter.

2. Check the salt and sugar. Add more if required.

3. Add finely chopped onion, cilantro and curry leaves, mix well and keep aside.

4. Meanwhile heat the oil in kadai, take little amount of batter and drop them in hot oil as small round balls or as a small round vada. Deep fry on both sides till golden brown colour, remove from the oil and arrange on tissue paper or news paper.

5. Same way prepare all the garelu and serve hot. The hot hot "Makka Garelu" are ready.

Note:

1. Don't add too much water while grinding. If the batter becomes loose, just add 1tbsp or required of rice flour.

2. Prepare the batter just before you prepare the garelu or add the salt just before u prepare them. Otherwise the batter becomes loose.

3. U can make them as bonda shaped or vada shaped.

4. U need not prepare any side dish or chutney for it. Serve as it is and hot.
