🥗Healthier: fresh corn

💰Cheaper: frozen corn

Fresh corn is healthier, while frozen corn is often cheaper.

Begin by draining and drying the corn (either canned or fresh cut corn).

In a bowl add 2 cups of corn, 1 Tbsp rice flour, and 2 Tbsp corn flour. Toss everything together until all the pieces of corn are well coated.

Next, heat up your oil for frying in a wok.

In batches, add the corn kernels to the oil and fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes.

Remove the corn from the oil and drain on a paper towel.

In a serving dish, add the crispy fried corn along with 1/4 tsp sprinkle of red chili powder, 1/2 tsp sprinkle of chaat masala, and salt to taste.

Garnish with cilantro and lemon or lime juice.
