Corn-Raw Mango Kabab
भुट्टे और कच्चे आम के कबाब
After the sultry summers, as the rain starts pouring, our preference and liking for food changes automatically. The weather is cool and the air is fresh. We start longing for some fried food with kadak masala chai. There are some particular ingredients which arrive only during monsoon. You will feel the divine smell of roasting the corncob(भुट्टा) in the air. Raw mangoes too reign over the vegetable market. A perfect pairing of ingredients is always magical. Both the ingredients together make an amazing snack, CORN AND RAW MANGO KABAB or CUTLETS
Both boiled and roasted corn kernels are used to make these yummy kababs. Boiled potatoes are the base, whereas raw mangoes give them a distinct tangy flavour which feels so good. Boiled corn works as the binding agent and keeps the kababs soft and moist too
