Ingredients

  • 2 cups corn (I use canned)
  • 1 Tablespoon butter or vegan butter/spread
  • 1 Tablespoon cilantro fresh coriander, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon chaat masala
  • 1 pinch ground cayenne
  • teaspoon black pepper
  • teaspoon black salt or regular fine salt
  • 1 Tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions

  • If using canned corn, rinse and drain well. Add to a microwave-safe bowl with the butter. Cook on high for between one and a half to two minutes, stirring every thirty seconds until the butter is melted and the corn is hot.
  • Mix the sweetcorn and butter well.
  • Finely chop the cilantro and add. Add all the other ingredients (chat masala, cayenne, black pepper, black salt, lemon juice) and mix well.
  • Adjust seasoning to taste and serve in small bowls or paper cups with spoons. About half a cup is one serving.

Notes

If you don't have a microwave, heat the butter and corn in a small nonstick saucepan on the stovetop on medium heat until the butter has melted.
