Notes

  1. Kashmiri red chili powder can be substituted with sweet paprika for colour and cayenne for heat. Likewise Chaat masala can be replaced with Tajin seasoning.
  2. Don't think boiling & air frying makes the cob part edible. That needs to be discarded after eating the corns out of them.
  3. If you don't have Air Fryer, follow the similar process in oven and bake at the similar temperature for atleast 20-25 minutes or until charred.
  4. If you don't have an oven too, follow the given steps :
  • Boil and cut the corn on the cobs into ribs.
  • Deep fry them.
  • Mix a spice mix using all given ingredients minus oil.
  • Once corn ribs are fried, sprinkle the spice mix on them. Simple.
