Notes

  • * add more water if required and if the baby corn masala gravy is too thick.
  • If the baby corn masala gravy becomes thin then simmer till the gravy thickens.
  • In this baby corn masala recipe I have blended both the onions and tomatoes together. So sauteing this paste takes a lot of time. If you want to be quick, then add the onion paste first and saute till golden brown and then add the tomatoes-spice-nuts paste.
