Ingredients

Ground cinnamon for sprinkling to taste
1 cup whole milk
7 fresh green corn cobs
1/2 cup granulated sugar

Where to find ingredients

You can find fresh corn cobs at your local vegetable market or the fresh produce section of supermarkets like Nature's Basket or BigBasket. Whole milk and sugar are staple items available at any local kirana store.

Preparation method

  1. Use a sharp knife to carefully slice the kernels off all the corn cobs.
  2. Transfer the corn kernels into a blender jar, adding the milk and sugar.
  3. Blend the mixture thoroughly until it achieves a smooth consistency.
  4. Pass the blended mixture through a fine-mesh sieve, pressing well with a spoon to extract all the liquid and remove excess fiber.
  5. Pour the strained liquid into a saucepan and place over medium heat.
  6. Cook while stirring constantly with a spatula to prevent sticking, until the mixture thickens and reaches a creamy, pudding-like consistency.
  7. Transfer the dessert into a serving dish, dust with cinnamon powder, and serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator.
