New Year’s Eve every year we make something special, to ring in the new year. One year we decided to make grilled veggies, it was fun! In Spanish it is called Asado! It takes a little time to make it. The marinate is ready in 5 minutes, you need to let it marinate for a minimum of 2 hours.
Baby corn is one of those vegetables that I really like having. It absorbs the taste really well, I have had a few more recipes with baby corn as the key ingredient. This is the easiest by far, it is ready to so quickly, you can make the sauce and marinate it, make it right when guests come home or are about to come!
This recipe is very similar to my paneer tikka recipe, this is dairy free, vegan and gluten free as well. It is low calorie and has high fibre. I’ve used an oven to make this, you can make it on a grill pan or electric grill too. My secret ingredient for this recipe is Garam Masala. It adds a kick to the recipe, usually most places have only chaat masala.
Let me know if you make this recipe? Also do you need any specific recipe? Ask me!
