Corn methi pulao, my sister gave me this recipe, a year back but some how when i have corn, methi will not be there and when methi leaves are in stock, corn will not be there. Many times i forget also. She too asks me sometimes, as why i didn’t post the corn methi pulao. Finally during our India trip she told she will make this for me and asked me to click the pictures only. I happily agreed and took the step wise pictures. She used the small fresh methi leaves but before i could take the final pictures a very good of friend of us came to meet me. So i didn’t click the final pictures but immediately after coming back from India i made this corn methi pulao and clicked the final pictures.

Sweet Corn 1/4 cup
Methi leaves 1/4 cup
Pepper powder 1/4 tsp
Green chilli 1
Onion 1
Oil 3 tsp
Bay leaf 1
Cinnamon stick 1

Method:
- Wash and soak the rice in 1 and 1/2 cup of rice. If using fresh corn, take out the corn kernels. I used frozen corn.
- Wash the methi leaves, slice the onions and slit the green chilli. If the methi leaves are very small and tender you can add it as it is, mine was bit big and so i chopped.
