Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 1 package (10 ounce) frozen corn

  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds

We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Note: do NOT thaw the corn. Using frozen helps to cut down moisture during the cooking process

  • Step 1: Heat ghee in a medium frying pan. When hot, add cumin seeds and reduce heat to medium. Add green chili and cayenne.

  • Step 2: Add corn and stir into the spices. Add salt to taste and cook until corn becomes soft and most of the moisture has evaporated - about 5-10 minutes.

  • Step 3: Stir in the lemon juice. Garnish with the chopped cilantro. Serve hot as a snack or side dish. Makes four snack-sized servings.
