- Drain: Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel-lined plate.
- Serve: Sprinkle with fresh coriander and extra chaat masala if desired. Serve immediately while hot and crunchy.
Notes
- Dry the corn well: This helps the coating stick and reduces oil splattering.
- Add only enough water to help the flour cling to the kernels.
- Fry in small batches for the crispiest result.
- Crispy corn is best served immediately because it softens as it sits.
- For canned corn, drain thoroughly before using.
- For frozen corn, thaw completely and pat very dry before coating.
