Instructions
 

  • Shuck the fresh corn and boil the cobs until tender. This can be done in a pot of boiling water or in the microwave. Set aside to cool slightly.
    Fresh yellow corn on the cob with green husks, ready for cooking or grilling.
  • Once the corn is cool enough to handle, cut the kernels off the cobs using a sharp knife. Be careful not to cut too deep into the cob.
  • Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the cumin seeds and dried red chili. Sauté for about 30 seconds until the cumin seeds are fragrant.
  • Add the ginger paste and ground cumin to the pan. Sauté for another minute until fragrant, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
  • Add the corn kernels to the pan and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they are lightly browned. This adds a nice textural element to the kebabs.
  • Add the peanuts, almonds, raisins, and chopped fresh coconut to the pan. Stir well to combine.
  • In a small bowl, combine the roasted chana dal, ragi flour, and salt. The ragi flour will help bind the kebabs together.
  • Add the dry ingredients to the pan with the corn mixture. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
  • Form the mixture into small patties or kebabs. You can use your hands or a spoon to shape them.
  • Heat a little more oil in the same pan over medium-low heat. Shallow fry the kebabs for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve the Crispy Corn Kebabs hot with coconut chutney.

Recipe Notes

Expert Tips

  • For a richer flavor, consider using bone-in chicken thighs instead of boneless, skinless breasts.
  • Adjust the spice level to your preference by adding more or less chili powder and cayenne pepper.
  • If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can substitute with parsley or omit it altogether.

Storage Instructions

  • Store leftover chicken chili in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • You can also freeze the chili for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
