Baby corn masala is a very tasty and comforting baby corn gravy cooked in tomato onion masala, this curry pairs amazing with paratha or roti.
Baby Corn Masala Gravy:
Baby corn is one of my favorite vegetables in Indo-Chinese food, stir-fried vegetable, and noodles recipes. A few times have had tried Baby Corn Curry, Baby Corn Jalfrezi, and Baby Corn Rice too but my love still remains with the Indo Chinese only until recently.
This Baby Corn Masala Gravy has made my mindset changed and I now started liking this assorted vegetable as in a classic Veg gravy dish. I served this curry with whole wheat parathas and boy oh boy the family went CRAZY for it.
I am yet to try baby corn masala with plain rice but I am sure it would taste amazing with that too. Now every time I am seeing baby corn at the market I surely don’t forget to grab a few packs.
Basic Ingredients for Baby corn Gravy:
- 10-12 baby corn, cut into rounds
- For paste-Tomato, onion, garlic, ginger, red chilli and cashew nuts
- Spices-Turmeric powder, Kashmiri Red chilli powder, Garam masala, Coriander powder
- Dry methi leaves
- Cumin powder
- Olive oil-You may use any other oil of your choice.
- Coriander leaves-For fresh flavors of herbs.
How to make Baby Corn Masala gravy?

Even I like baby corn but we don’t get fresh baby corn year round and I don’t like canned ones. Baby corn masala looks food and indeed a good one to serve with roti.
Fingerlicking baby corn masala gravy, and those prefectly rolled rotis tempts me a lot. Delicious gravy there.
Wow the whole setup looks so inviting Sapana, I can invite myself to this meal..:)
Baby Corn Masala… wow, besides using them in soups and stir fries I have never thought of using them in sabjis. Good idea.
Wow! this looks so appealing. We love baby corns and as Usha mentioned we don’t get them fresh very often. Would love to try this soon.
I associate baby corn with Asian food (chinese) Here we generally only get it canned unless you go to a gourmet market like Whole Foods but this masala looks so good
I love this subzi and my boys would be so excited if I make this for them. They love baby corn. I just wish we got some fresh ones here. The canned ones just don’t taste that good.
That is yumm, i don’t mind gobbling an extra roti with this delicious curry!!!
This finger-licking baby corn masala looking so yummy. with laccha paratha definitely awesome.
I just came back from the Veg market, If I had seen your this lip smacking recipe earlier, I would have bought baby corns 🙁 Will have to wait till next time.
Delicious side dish to ge with Rice or Parathas..Well presented Sapana!
