Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 yellow onion, chopped (small onion)
- 3 cups whole kernel corn (3 fresh ears)
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 3 ounces Cotija cheese, grated (3/4 cup - Parmesan may be used)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
How to Make
-
Step 1: Heat olive oil in a med skillet over med heat. Add the onion & cook until softened, stirring occasionally (6-8 min).
-
Step 2: Add the corn & cook (stirring occasionally) until tender (2-4 min).
-
Step 3: Transfer to a food processor. Add the sour cream, Cotija cheese, 3 tbsp water & 1/4 tsp each of salt & black pepper. Process until almost smooth, but some texture should still be apparent. (A hand-held stick blender may also be used for this step)
-
Step 4: HINT: Since desired consistency may be a matter of personal preference, I suggest not adding any water until you're sure you'll need it. Then add 1 tbsp at a time until the texture is where you want it to be.
