Corn on the Cob with Satya Spices

Recipe given by Gurprasad, Thank you !

Cooking corn on the cob can be very simple, however, if it is overcooked the ears can harden and it may loose its sweetness.

Boil in a large pot of water; add a pinch of sugar, if desired, to enhance the naturally sweet flavor of the corn, but avoid adding salt which makes the kernels hard. Pull the husks and silk off of the ears of the corn, then add the corn to the pot.

Return the water to a boil again and cook the corn for 3 minutes only. Depending on the size, variety, and freshness of the ears it may take another minute. Drain.



For the sauce: 

You can use ghee or sesame oil, 2 tsp for 3 ears of corn

1/2 tsp Satya Spices of your preference


Fresh herbs such as mint, peppermint basil, oregano or coriander, chopped
Salt



Mix all well and pour on top of the corn. Enjoy it.
