corn spoonbread

I love Martha Stewart Food. Such a great magazine. And this month is no different. Of course, I made it my own here and there.

I usually don’t make a point to make elaborate sides, but I’m so glad I changed my mind for this one.

Start with some butter.

Add half an onion.

and half a can of diced chiles.

Separate 4 eggs. Just set them aside.

Add 2 cups milk to the chiles and onion.

And 2 cups of thawed frozen corn.

Once the milk gets hot but not boiling, add 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal.

Whisk it together until it firms up. Then sit it aside for 10 minutes.

Whisk the egg yolks and combine with corn mixture.

Whisk the egg whites until fluffy. Fold into the corn.

Spoon into buttered 8×8 dish and bake at 375 for 30-35 minutes.

Oh, my. This is fantastic.

    I made this tonight for dinner for my husband and myself. It was so delicious and satisfying! Perfect fall time food! I used the electric hand mixer for the egg whites instead of a whisk, and it worked like magic! Thanks Krissie for posting this great recipe.
