Corn and Rice Tikki Satay
by Tarla Dalal
Nothing can beat the visual and aromatic appeal of this delicious satay made of colourful pineapples and irresistible tikkis made of corn and rice. While the rice helps bond the juicy corn kernels, mint and chaat masala impart a sharp and inviting aroma and flavour to the tikkis, which are cooked on a tava with minimal oil rather than being deep-fried. Bright and vibrant capsicum provides crunchy intervals, while a sprinkling of chaat masala causes tempting whiffs that make the Corn and Rice Tikki Satay everybody’s first choice!
