Creamed Corn
serves 2-4
Creamed corn is a classic side - sweet and creamy in one, kid-friendly vegetable side. If you like a bit more spice, try mixing in some chili powder or cayenne pepper to taste.
1/4 red onion, minced
2 teaspoons unsalted butter
salt and pepper
3 cups corn kernels (thawed if frozen)
1/2 cup heavy cream
prep: 5 minutes
total: 15 minutes
medium saucepan
1. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. When the foam has subsided, add the onions and season with a light sprinkling of salt and pepper. Sauté until the onions soften, 4-6 minutes. Stir in the corn and cook until it heats through, 2-3 minutes.
2. Pour in the cream and stir to coat the corn. Cook for a few minutes, until the cream has heated through and slightly thickened (but don't let it boil). Add salt and pepper to taste.
