Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/4 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon cumin seed
1 teaspoon garam masala
3/4 cup milk
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon melted butter
1 cup thawed frozen corn kernels
1/2 cup thinly sliced green onion
1/2 cup minced red bell pepper
1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves
oil (for frying)

Steps:

In bowl combine flour, baking powder, salt, cumin and garam marsala.
In small bowl whisk milk, egg and butter.
Pour the milk mix over the flour mix; combine quickly to form a lump-free batter.
Fold in corn, green onion, minced bell pepper and cilantro.
In large pan pour in oil to 1 1/4 inch deep and heat to 375 degrees.
Use a teaspoon to gently slip heaping spoonfuls of batter into oil (if you have a melon baller you can use that instead).
Only drop in 3 or 4 at a time.
Fry the puffs turning them occasionally till golden brown - about 4-5 minutes.
Remove from oil and drain on a paper towel.
Keep them warm in the oven on low heat.
Serve them hot.
