  • Prep Time 5 Mins
  • Cook Time 15 Mins
  • Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 2.5 cups Tender Sweet Corn kernels
  • 2.5 cups Tender Amaranth leaves chopped
  • 1/2 inch Ginger
  • 6 - 7 Garlic
  • Salt- to taste
  • 1 tsp Cumin
  • 1/2 tsp Fennel seeds
  • 1/2 cup Onion chopped
  • 1/4 - 1/3 cup Rice Flour
  • 4 - 5 Green Chillies
  • Oil – For frying

Instructions

  1. Grind Green Chilli, Ginger, Garlic, Sonf, Salt, and Sweet Corn kernels into a coarse thick paste without using any water.
  2. Mix chopped onion, chopped Amaranth leaves, and rice flour into the ground mixture. Do not squeeze the Amaranth much. It can leave water and make the mixture too moist and runny.
  3. Take a little mixture on your palm and pat gently into a round disc and slip it carefully into hot oil. Fry to a nice brown colour and take it out. (See ‘Tips’ for getting perfect garelu!)
  4. The Sweet Corn garelu are very tasty when eaten hot with Ginger Pachadi.
