METHOD

Salad-
Heat oil and ghee (Clarified butter) over medium heat. Add corn and cook until corn starts to char, stirring occassionally. While the corn is cooking, mix together mayonnaise, feta, lime, coriander, jalapeno, onion, chilli powder, salt and pepper in a large bowl. When corn is done, gently fold it in with other ingredients.

Sauce-
Mix mayo with spice to taste and coloring.

Chicken-
Remove chicken from bones. Place in magimix and form into mince. Mix all ingredients together with mince. If too wet add more fresh breadcrumbs. Mould into golf ball sized balls, push in ice-cream sticks, and leave in freezer for few minutes to firm up. Dip in flour, then egg, then kelloggs crumbs. Deep fry till golden and cooked through. (I washed chicken bones from the bone meat, and pushed into balls. I let it set in freezer then coated and fried the lolipops with the bones).
