Sweet Corn Korma - a delicious easy to make Side Dish from Rajasthan!

Sweet Corn is loved my most and available easily. Sweet Corn Korma is a Rajasthani specialty and is very easy to make as it has very basic ingredients. The combination is simply exotic!

Amma cam across this recipe in some article on Rajasthani cuisine. This recipe has Garlic in it, but Amma did not add any. We loved it just the same!
