Corn on Toast

One of our most favorite restaurants in Chennai is Eden. Each and every item on their menu is mouth watering, delicious and you can add all adjectives to that Food.

My personal favs in their menu are Corn on Toast/Corn Florentine, Paneer Shaslik & Babycorn fry.

Got some fresh Corn yesterday and the first thing that came to my mind was this gorgeous yet simple dish. You can have it during breakfast or you can even prepare it as a snack for kids in the evening. It will take around 15-20 minutes to put together this entire toast. You can adjust the measurements if you are serving more than 2 people. I have used wholemeal bread, however you can use normal white bread/wheat bread/multi grain bread too.

My Notes :

1. Since the white sauce will get thickened over time make sure you have everything ready and start the process
2. Start making the Corn+Onion+Tomato mixture first. While it is cooking start making the sauce
3. When you are almost done with the gravy toast the bread to golden brown color

3. Turn the gas stove to low flame and then start adding milk.
4. Keep on stirring and ensure no lumps are formed
5. Add cheese at this stage. Let it melt.

7. Before starting to make this white sauce we need to first ensure that Corn mixture is ready.
