Corn Karaage seasoned with butter and soy sauce is the best side dish or snack. It is easy to make and fills you up nicely.
Have you ever had Butter Soy Sauce Corn Karaage? 5 years ago when I was in Japan, it was so popular with my friends and I used to make it a lot. There are some Izakayas (Japanese pubs) that feature this on their menu.
Corn Karaage is simply fried corn seasoned with butter and soy sauce. It is absolutely delicious and so addicting you can’t stop eating it.
I think some of people may think it is similar to elotes (Grilled Mexican Street Corn), but this corn Karaage is fried and flavored with Japanese ingredients whereas elotes is grilled and uses Mexican ingredients.
