Main Ingredients- 1 can sweet corn, drained
- Shredded cheese (mozzarella or cheddar) to taste
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, thoroughly drain the canned corn by placing it in a sieve. Properly draining the corn is key to bringing out its natural sweetness and flavor. In a large bowl, combine the drained corn, 1 tablespoon of sugar for sweetness, and 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise for a creamy texture and rich flavor.
Step 2
Add your shredded cheese to the corn mixture. Mozzarella cheese will give you that satisfying stretchy pull, while cheddar cheese offers a deeper, sharper flavor. Feel free to use a blend of both for a more complex taste! Mix everything together until well combined.
Step 3
Prepare a frying pan by lining it with aluminum foil. This makes cleanup a breeze and prevents the corn cheese from sticking to the pan. Spoon the corn and cheese mixture onto the foil-lined pan and spread it out evenly into a circular shape, fitting the pan.
Step 4
Now, cook over very low heat. Cover the pan with a lid and let it cook gently for about 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbling. Be careful not to overheat, as it can burn. You’ll know it’s ready when you hear a gentle sizzling and see the cheese melting beautifully.
