Recipe: Homemade Cream Corn in an Electric Fry Pan
Ingredients:
- - 4 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels (about 5-6 ears of corn)
- - 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- - 1 cup heavy cream
- - 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- - 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- - 1/2 teaspoon salt
- - 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Corn:
If using fresh corn, husk the ears and remove the kernels by running a sharp knife down the sides. If using frozen corn, thaw it according to package instructions. Set aside.
2. Preheat the Electric Fry Pan:
Plug in your electric fry pan and preheat it to medium heat or around 350°F (175°C). Adjust the temperature as needed to prevent burning.
3. Melt Butter:
Add the unsalted butter to the preheated electric fry pan. Allow it to melt and coat the surface evenly.
4. Add Corn:
Carefully pour the corn kernels into the electric fry pan. Stir them gently to coat them with the melted butter.
5. Cook the Corn:
Allow the corn to cook in the electric fry pan, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes or until it becomes tender.
6. Create the Creamy Sauce:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, salt, and black pepper until well combined and smooth.
7. Pour the Creamy Sauce:
Pour the creamy sauce mixture over the cooked corn in the electric fry pan. Stir gently to evenly coat the corn with the sauce.
8. Simmer and Thicken:
Reduce the heat to low and let the creamed corn simmer in the electric fry pan for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
9. Serve and Enjoy:
Once the creamed corn reaches the desired thickness, remove the electric fry pan from the heat. Transfer the creamed corn to a serving dish and serve it hot as a delightful side dish alongside your favorite main course.
With just a few simple steps and your trusty electric fry pan, you can create a creamy, homemade delight that will elevate your dining experience.
This classic cream corn recipe brings together the natural sweetness of corn with a rich, velvety sauce that will leave your taste buds craving more. So, dust off your electric fry pan, gather your ingredients, and indulge in the comforting flavors of homemade cream corn.
