TIPS FOR PERFECT CRUNCHY CORN

1. I used frozen sweetcorn. You can use fresh sweetcorn as well.
2. Frozen is best since it dont need any cooking, just thawing is good or just microwave for 1 min.
3. Drain the corn well before adding flour so it dont get lumpy.
4. Toss the corn gently in flour so it coats in a thin layer.
5. Shake excess flour so the oil dont gets too floury.
6. Fry the corn in very hot oil so it gets very crunchy.
7. You can add vinegar instead of lemon juice.
8. Serve immediately for best taste

BE CAREFUL WHEN FRYING CORN, 

IT MAY BURST SOMETIMES

FEW EXTRA TIPS FOR CRISPY SWEET CORN RECIPE

1. Use Fresh shucked corn instead of frozen sweetcorn.
2. Combination of chilli powder, chaat masala powder, cumin powder and black pepper powder can be used.
3. You can use just cornflour and rice flour combination for getting even more crispier corn.
4. Add finely chopped capsicum if you wish.
5. Double frying corn may help to get crispier corn. Fry sweetcorn for 1 min on hot oil, drain and then refry again in super hot oil till crispy.

Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you.
