Spicy Piri Piri masala corn.
Boiled corn seasoned with aromatic tangy spices and the fresh smell and flavour you get while you make this recipe is out of the world. You might have experienced it in small street stalls where they sell it paper cups spicy hot.
Street style spicy sweet corn recipe is so tempting and flavoursome with chaat style taste. This recipe is so simple that you can make it in a few minutes if you have boiled corn kernels ready. This can be served as an evening snack or as a tangy salad.
My daughters are big fans of Piri Piri flavour and so I gave the desi corn a twist of Piri-Piri spice and they loved it.
