This baby corn manchurian preparation is bit same as Cabbage Manchurian, today I added schezwan chutney as extra. I am not cooking baby corn as it become too smooth and do not give crispy taste.

** To make sauce thick we use corn flour mix. 

** Though fried corn flour stay crispy for sometime, recommended to serve manchurian immediately after preparation.
