This is a super yummy Indian street food, made with corn. In India locally available corn is not very sweet like sweet corn. So this dish tastes best made with local indian variety. As we do not get that here in Japan so I have modified the recipe to use sweet corn kernels and corn grits to get that same flavor and taste. Do give it a try.
