I thought this was a Madhur Jaffrey recipe, but i haven't had luck in re-locating it. Here's what i have scribbled down:
1/2 c cornmeal
1 and 1/3 c chickpea or all-purpose flour
1 T coriander seeds (or ground, i mean, really)
1 t garam masala
1 t salt
3 c corn kernels
1 c water, or as needed
1 T baking powder (we tried without it once, wasn't as good)
3 T chopped cilantro
2 t oil and some for frying
(opt: 2 or 3 jalepeno chilies, coarsely chopped)
and i know we used some fresh corn as well, maybe i skipped that line? my guess is somewhere around 2 cups, but i guess you'll have to eyeball it.
Combine cornmeal, chickpea flour, the spices, and 1.5 c of corn kernels in food processor*. Add 1 c water and process into a batter (10-15 seconds). Transfer and set aside for at least 15 minutes. Preheat a pan until drops of water dance. Stir in remaining ingredients, fry (4-5 minutes for both sides).
In my mind it makes more sense to let it sit if you've added the baking powder, so i'm beginning to doubt my notes (they also said "preheat oven to 300" before preheating the pan). eeeps. Well, I'll make these soon and correct the recipe. *If you lack a food processor (as i currently do), i'd suggest buying cornflour (something ground more finely than cornmeal) to substitute, and using ground coriander, and then just mixing by hand or with a beater.
