Back in 2017, I shared what many of you still call The Ultimate Curry Corn Recipe, and it remains one of the most popular vegan recipes on CaribbeanPot.com. But sometimes, we crave the same bold flavor with fewer steps. That’s where this Easy Caribbean Curry Corn with Green Seasoning comes in, a simplified version that’s just as vibrant, thanks to Caribbean Green Seasoning, roasted geera, and that unmistakable touch of Scotch Bonnet heat.
Sweet corn kernels soak up every bit of that rich, curry-infused sauce, making this a go-to side dish or a vegan main you can serve on its own. It’s also naturally gluten-free, just check each ingredient to make sure it aligns with your specific dietary needs. Whether you like your curry corn dry or with a bit of gravy, this dish delivers serious flavor in under 30 minutes.

Cooking Notes from the Kitchen
- This recipe skips coconut milk, but feel free to add 1 cup for a richer gravy.
- Using only the corn kernels makes this dish easier to eat and faster to cook.
- Green Scotch Bonnet has a milder flavor, perfect if you want heat without overwhelming spice.
- You can adjust the texture by reducing or increasing the cooking liquid.
Can I make curry corn gluten-free?
Yes, this recipe is naturally gluten-free. Just ensure your curry powder and green seasoning don’t contain any hidden gluten-based thickeners or additives.
Can I use canned corn?
Yes, but drain and rinse it well first. Fresh or frozen corn gives a better texture, but canned works in a pinch.
How do I make this creamier?
Add 1 cup of coconut milk in place of half the cooking water for a richer, more luxurious sauce.
