To prepare Bhutte Ka Kees, start by grinding the corn niblets in a mixer grinder until they form a coarse paste. Be careful not to over-grind; you want the texture slightly coarse. Heat ghee in a pan and add heeng, mustard seeds, and cumin seeds. Once they splutter, add chopped ginger, green chili, and curry leaves. Sauté for a minute. Next, add the ground corn paste to the pan and sauté for 5-7 minutes until it starts to cook and release its aroma. Then add turmeric and chili powder, mix well, and cook for another minute. |

Pour in milk or water, whichever you prefer, and stir continuously. Add salt to taste and a pinch of sugar if desired. Let it simmer for about 5-7 minutes until the mixture thickens. Once the mixture reaches a thick consistency, squeeze in juice from half a lemon and mix well. Turn off the heat. Garnish Bhutte Ka Kees with grated coconut and chopped coriander. Serve hot and enjoy this flavorful corn dish! |
