Baby Corn, Potatoes Stir Fry in Microwave!

It's been raining the past two days. Well can declare that a seemly winter is here finally!, though you can hardly call this very chill. As always, it rains in the night and by morning mostly it is just drizzling. The roads are really bad with full of water clogging all over. You really have to fight your way out at places. But when you past that and have the road a bit free and for yourself, you can really enjoy! The cool weather with slight drizzling, you can but only ride slow to enjoy the serene feeling.

I always think certain dishes I should plan and cook, but procrastination has become my second name. Our renovation has come to some manageable stuff, still long way to get better. So I hardly can cook much to experiment. Of course, I offer that as an excuse! When Suma decided on Fresh produce for this month's Microwave Cooking, I thought I would do one of those gravies with vegetables. But then that has to wait. Meanwhile, here is yet another simple way of making potatoes combined with baby corns for a quick sides for rice or chapatis!

Before I jump on to the recipe, wanted to share that I have invited PJ to share her knowledge as a dietitian to talk about Nutrition for Children, do check it out!

It will not be fully cooked, but drain the water.

If you are using the same bowl, wipe it clean, add the oil. Micro for 1 min for the oil to get hot. Add in the seasoning ingredients and micro for another min.

Then add in the drained vegetables, add salt and turmeric. Micro for 3 mins. Stir again, add in the chili and coriander powder.
