Bhutte Ka kees / Corn Snack - Madhya Pradesh Special

Bhutte(corn) Ka Kees is an easy to make, delicious street food from Indore, Madhya Pradesh (a central state of India).

Madhya Pradesh cuisine is very new to me and I started exploring the same. Thus I came across this healthy and easy to make recipe. Its creamy taste with mild seasoning is worth a try and cherish. I have adapted the recipe from Vegrecipes of india

This recipe is my entry to the event "Shhh!!! Cooking Secretly" challenge conducted by Mayuri Patel of Mayuri's Jikoni. For the month of October, I have paired with Priya Iyer who blogs at "thephotowali.wordpress.com"; the ingredients given by her are Corn and milk.

  3. Delicious, I love this snack. We Gujaratis too make this as a snack though we prefer to use white corn. Isn't a delight to try out new dishes which you've never had before?

  4. I must say that this khees and the indori poha are the most tried and loved dishes this time... I am almost tempted to make these as soon as fresh corns hit the aisles, which it is going to very soon...
