Cream Style Sweet Corn W/ Fresh Chive & Carrots image

Ever go to make something and realize at the last minute you don't quite have enough to make a complete meal. That is exactly what happened to me the other day with this dish. I really wanted some Fried Corn as many Southerners call it or Cream Style Corn as my husband calls it. The three ears just wasn't enough so I decided to...

Categories     Vegetables

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 large ears fresh sweet corn
2 c coarsley grated carrots
1/3 c fresh chive chopped
2 pkg no calorie sweetner or 1 tbs. sugar
1 1/2 c fat free milk
2 Tbsp corn starch
2 Tbsp can't beleive it is not butter or cooking oil
salt & pepper to taste ( i used steak seasoning 1/2 tsp)

Steps:

  • 1. My husband loved this so much, he had some before it was completely cooked. I hope you like this as much as we did. It was really great, & I created a new recipe in the process.
  • 2. Prep the corn into a large bowl by removing the kernal's from each ear of corn with a sharp knife. Then run the sharp blade of the knife along the side of the cob to remove any pulp/milk mixture still left on the cob. Repeat this with each ear of corn.
  • 3. Add the chopped coarsely grated carrots.
  • 4. Now add the chopped chive. As much or as little as you like, it does add just a hint of the onion/garlic flavor.
  • 5. Stir to blend the mixture together.
  • 6. In a large Measuring cup add the milk and corn starch & stir until the corn starch dissolves into the milk. Then pour the milk mixture into the bowl of corn mixture.
  • 7. Add the Can't Believe It's Not Butter or cooking oil to a 8 inch skillet,(I used cast iron) because it holds the heat evenly, and mama always use it for fried corn.
  • 8. When the oil or butter has heated over medium low heat, pour In the corn mixture, and immediately begin to stir. Stir on a regular basis or mixture will stick to bottom of skillet. If need be add a bit of water, I had to add an additional 1/2 cup or so of water after corn started to cook and mixture thickened. Allow to cook 15 to 20 minutes, Remove from heat and serve immediately.

Nutrition Facts :

Tips:

  • Choose the right carrots: Look for young, tender carrots with smooth skin and bright orange color. Avoid carrots that are too large or have blemishes.
  • Prepare the carrots properly: Wash the carrots thoroughly and peel them if desired. Cut the carrots into thin slices or matchsticks for best results.
  • Use fresh chives: Fresh chives have a more delicate flavor than dried chives. If you only have dried chives on hand, use about half the amount called for in the recipe.
  • Don't overcook the carrots: Carrots should be cooked until they are tender-crisp, not mushy. Overcooked carrots will lose their flavor and texture.
  • Serve immediately: Chive carrots are best served immediately after cooking. They can be reheated, but they may lose some of their flavor and texture.

Conclusion:

Chive carrots are a simple but delicious side dish that can be enjoyed as part of any meal. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like them plain or with a little added flavor, chive carrots are sure to please everyone at the table.
