Baby Corn Satay Recipe. A perfect party starter or it also goes as a yummy side dish when served with fried rice, noodles or pulaos. It also happens to be vegan and gluten free.
Though we are not a big fan of baby corn at home, this baby corn satay is much loved by the kids whenever I serve this with either noodles or fried rice and pulaos like vegetable pulao or peas pulao.
There are so many ways you can make this satay. I usually do not make a marinade, mix it with the baby corns and let it rest for some time. This method is a quick one without having to spend a long time in the kitchen.
You can however skip the tomato ketchup in the recipe and use yogurt for the base and apply all over the baby corn and let it rest for some time before continuing with the recipe.
Though I do love that version too, I mostly follow this recipe alone to make the satay and it is quick and gets done in minutes.
You can use either creamy or crunchy peanut butter while making the sauce. You can also top it with crushed roasted peanuts before serving which will taste absolutely good when had with noodles.
If the baby corns are thin, then you can use as such without cutting them into 2 but if they are going to be thick, then cut them into 2 and quarter them vertically depending on how thick they are.
