# Carrot and Baby Corn Stir-Fry Recipe | Indian Baby Corn Recipes

[![Carrot and Baby Corn Stir-Fry Recipe | Indian Baby Corn Recipes](http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3571/3355917124_cabb8c9d68.jpg?v=0)](http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3571/3355917124_cabb8c9d68.jpg?v=0)This Carrot Baby Corn Masala recipe is from Das Sreedharan's Easy Indian, and he is right, it is easy! The book is a good mix of really simple recipes like this one and ones that require a bit of practise, like Indian dumplings. Even then, the entire book has recipes with easy-to-get ingredients and something all Indian kitchens stock up on anyway.

Though there is nothing much that's unique or different about the recipe, the combination was quite new to me, something I hadn't tried before - **carrots and baby corn**! The crunchiness of the baby corn offsest the soft cooked carrots and the simple masala mix gave it a nice twist. Try this recipe if you are looking to make an easy Indian baby corn masala.
