Masala Corn on the Cob!


Our city and street foods are synonymous.The actual flavor of a place lies in the food that is seen around the sidewalks, on carts and small wayside shops -they form the rich tapestery of the city.Come July and we can see the ubiquituous “bhutta wala” or “challi wala” set up shop in every nook and cranny across many neighbourhoods.Corn is husked, and then grilled on live embers of coal, turning them occasionally so that it’s evenly carmalized.It is then rubbed over with a mixture of salt, red chilli powder and lime.The combination of the tangy and spicy –perfect for our palates!
Bhutta / Challi=Corn ; wala= person
