Sweet Corn Sundal | Mokkajonna Guggillu: Navratri Recipe

Navratri means a sundal every day and this Sweet Corn Sundal is just one of the many I make. The hint of sweetness from the corn, spiciness from the red chillies and the nuttiness from the coconut make it a true delight. As a bonus, unlike other sundal varieties, you need not pre-soak the corn for hours, so this is an instant Sundal recipe.
