Another corn dish 😊.
You know name of the dish is Hong Kong crispy corn 🌽 (and I can't say this without moving my head from left to right😆) Believe me or try it yourself!
This corn dish was taught to me during my food science diploma course. He was a strict teacher and would not accept any compromise with the recipe. Every ingredient needed for the recipe has to be there if he's taking the practical.
Also we must follow the procedure as instructed.
I had started cook when I was in school. My mom was not somebody who enjoyed cooking and in rotation we would be fed with same thing served in same way again and again.
I was bored with this and started going in the kitchen. I would decorate the plate and serve everyone in starting but gradually I had started giving tadka in the daal, frying potato and then making chapattis.
I started to enjoy this and everyone around me in the family appreciated whenever I made something.
