I just love corn. It's one of my favorite side dishes in the world...I wouldn't put it past me to eat it for breakfast! Usually I just grab a can of corn...generally creamed corn...from the grocery store every time I go. This time I decided to up the nutritional value and just make it myself. The results were so amazing that I'm never going back to canned corn again!
What I love most about this recipe is that it's convenient (you can use frozen corn if you don't have fresh) and it only takes 10 minutes. It was so easy that I'm not sure that I can really call it cooking!
Country Creamed Corn
- 1/4 cup chopped green onion (or finely chopped regular onion)
- 2 T. butter
- 16 oz. frozen (or fresh) corn
- 1 T. cornstarch
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4-1/2 t. each salt and pepper
Saute onions in butter about 2-3 minutes, or until tender. Stir in corn; cover and cook about 5 minutes until heated. In a small bowl, whisk together remaining ingredients. Stir into corn, and bring to a boil. Cook, uncovered, for about 2 minutes or until thickened. Serves 6.
