Ingredients Serving: 4

All-purpose flour/Maida- 1 cup
Boiled sweet corn kernels- 1 cup (approx)
Curry leaves- 4-5 sprigs
Scallion- 1 (chopped)
Black pepper powder- ¾ tsp
Baking powder- 2 tsp
Egg- 1 (at room temperature)
Salt- 1 tsp
Fresh grated coconut- ½ cup
Vegetable oil- ¼ cup
Milk- ½ cup
Cheese- ¼ cup + more to sprinkle on top (I used cheddar)

Instructions

Add corn kernels in a mixer/grinder. Grind until a coarse mixture forms. I’ve grinded them in such a way that some kernels stayed intact. Take out the mixture in a bowl, keep aside.
Prepare a 4.5” X 8.5” loaf pan by greasing with oil and place a piece of baking paper at the bottom of the pan.
In a separate bowl add all-purpose flour, black pepper powder, salt and baking powder. Whisks well.
Add chopped scallion, grated coconut, egg, oil, curry leaves (tear them into pieces using your fingers), milk and crushed sweet corns (I’ve measured ½ cup of this and added into the bread batter) into this.
Mix well using a spatula.
Fold in grated cheese, mix gently. The batter would be thick and that is absolutely fine.
Preheat oven to 176C.
Pour this into the prepared loaf pan. Smooth the top with the help of spatula.
Sprinkle some cheese on top.
Tap loaf pan gently on kitchen counter couple of times to release the air bubbles.
Bake for 35-40 minutes.
Do the toothpick test after 30 minutes. Insert toothpick in the middle of the bread. Bread is ready if the toothpick comes out clean. If not, bake for some more time, and then check again.
Cool the bread in the pan for 10 minutes and then run a sharp knife around the edges of the pan and carefully remove the bread.
Turn onto a cooling rack and leave there until cool completely.
When cooled slice, serve and enjoy!
These bread slices taste great on their own. You can serve them with some condiments of your choice.
