Corn Maque Choux (Fried Corn) image

I had no idea this dish even had a name until I grew up. We had it any time we had fried chicken, which was often. I love this dish - to me it is comfort food.

Categories     Corn

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 onion, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 lb corn kernel (cut from the cob or frozen and thawed)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper
1 pinch cayenne

Steps:

  • In the skillet, heat the butter over medium low heat until melted.
  • Add the onion and saute until wilted but not brown.
  • Add the bell peppers and the corn and stir to coat everything with butter, sprinkle with some salt, pepper, and cayenne, and continue cooking over med-low heat, stirring frequently, until all liquid (if any) completely evaporates, the vegetables start to take on a slight caramalization and the whole room smells really, really good.
  • (This should take about 20 minutes).
  • Taste, adjust the seasonings if you need to, and serve.
  • Note: I say to use a cast iron skillet because, as with cornbread, I believe this dish suffers in flavor if it is not cooked in one.
  • However, if you don't have one, you can use another skillet- just know that it would be much better cooked in a cast iron skillet.

I was disappointed with this corn maque choux. The corn was not cooked evenly and the flavors were not well-balanced. I would not recommend this recipe.

This corn maque choux was just okay. The corn was a bit too mushy for my taste and the flavors were not very pronounced. I would not recommend this recipe.

This corn maque choux was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The corn was cooked perfectly and the flavors were great. I would recommend using less cayenne pepper if you don't like spicy food.
