Ingredients

2 corn cobs
4 tbsp butter
14 oz red capsicum , cored, deseeded and finely diced
2 1/2 cups short- cut macaroni
2/3 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup plain flour (maida)
4 egg yolks
4 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp chilli powder
1 tsp garam masala
salt and pepper to taste

To Serve
mushrooms (khumbh)

Method

Bring a saucepan of water to the boil, add corn cobs and cook for about 8 minutes. drain thoroughly and refresh under cold running water for 3 minutes. carefully cut away the kernels on to towels and set aside to dry.
Melt 2 tbsp of the butter in a skillet. add the bell peppers and cook over a low heat for 4 minutes. drain and pat dry with paper towels.
bring a large saucepan of lightly salted water to boil. add the macaroni and cook for about 12 minutes, or until tender but still firm to the bite. drain the macaroni thoroughly and leave to cool in cold water until required.
Beat together the cream, flour, salt and the egg yolks in a bowl until smooth. add the corn and bell peppers to the cream and egg mixture. drain the macaroni and then toss into the corn and cream mixure. season with black pepper, red chilli powder and garam masala.
Heat the remaining butter with the oil in a large skillet. drop spoonfuls of the mixure into the pan and press down until the mixure forms a flat pancake. fry until golden brown on both sides, and all the mixure is used up. serve immediately with mushrooms and fried leeks.
