Cheddar Sweet Corn Spoon Bread
Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to approximately 375°F and have ready a casserole dish, approximately 8x10 inches, lightly buttered.
- In a clean saucepan, melt the butter and lightly saute the finely diced onions. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper and salt.
- Add the milk and bring to a simmer. Add the cornmeal and work briskly with a wooden spoon to prevent any lumps. Cook the cornmeal for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring gently over low heat. Remove from heat and allow to cool for 15 minutes.
- Next add the cheese, the egg yolks and the corn and stir well so that everything is thoroughly mixed.
- Whisk the egg whites so as they are at a soft peak stage and then incorporate 1/3 at a time to a corn mixture.
- Pour everything into the casserole and bake for approximately 20 to 30 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes prior to serving.
