In a pan, add washed baby spinach.

Cook for 2 minutes or till spinach is wilted. Drain and set aside.

In the same pan heat 2-3 teaspoons of oil. Once oil is hot, add roughly chopped ginger, garlic and green chili. Saute till raw smell goes away, around 1 minute.

Transfer to a mixer, add 1/4 cup of milk (or coconut milk if vegan) and blend to a smooth paste. Set aside.

In a pan, now heat 1 teaspoon ghee (or butter or oil if vegan). Add red chili powder and saute for few seconds.

Then add the sweet corn and saute for 1-2 minutes. I used frozen corn and put them in warm water for 5 minutes before using in the recipe.

Add the pureed spinach paste and mix. Cook for 2 minutes and then add sugar, 2 tablespoons milk and 1/2 cup water.
