These scrumptious Corn Rolls stand apart from other run-of-the-mill starters due to the tongue-tickling Oriental-style filling of corn, onions and green chillies perked up with soy sauce. Bread acts as the holder for this mixture, while plain flour helps seal the rolls. Drain the oil well after deep-frying these rolls and serve them hot and crisp with your favourite sauce.
