Sweet corn sundal recipe | navratri recipes

Sweet corn generally either i make soup or rice with it. This is the first time i am making Sundal with sweet corn. Actually i tried it once few months back, as it is navratri season i thought i will post the recipe of sweet corn sundal. You can make it even on normal days too. This sundal can be had with even rice and  rasam too. The addition of ginger and carrots make this sundal taste more awesome. So don’t skip it. I used fresh corn, you can use frozen corn too.

Notes:

1. You can add finely chopped coriander leaves to the sundal which will enhance the flavour. I didn’t have in hand so didin’t add.
2. Since the sweet corn is bit sweet 1 green chili for 1 sweet corn is perfect.
3. Do not skip the ginger as it will enhance the flavour of the sundal.
