A dadima called Arun taught me to make her speciality corn on the cob subji (Punjabi for a spiced vegetable dish). What I love about Arun’s recipe, is how she chops the corn on the cob into small pieces, and cooks them in a creamy coconut masala. I’ve made this dish on countless gatherings and it’s always been a hit. Best enjoyed in company where no airs and graces are needed. Every bite is so juicy, luscious and fragrant, that it’s well worth a bit of messy eating with your hands. – Anneeka
