Corn on Toast Recipe
Corn Au gratin is a french dish which is very popular in India now a days . My list of cousins wanted me post the recipe in my blog as they loved this dish in restaurants. Traditionally Au gratins are bake with bread crumbs and cheese topping for the crispy crust but as you know I haven’t got a oven yet still I made and enjoyed this luscious Au gratin on stove top just skipping the crispy crust. Trust me it tastes heaven when topped on a crispy toast in spite of the missing crust. You can use cooked fresh corn kernels in this recipe as I didn’t get I used tinned once. I love white sauce as such , It is really amazing to know there are many cuisines use the same white sauce as base in different dishes   and of course making my job more easier 😉 .  You can try this sauce flavoring with some other herbs too it will taste delicious anyway. This dish can also be called as corn on the toast , many restaurants name it this way. Moving on to this simple and humble recipe…

  Ingredients 

  Corn Kernel – 1/2 cup ( I used Tinned one’s)

  • If using fresh corn kernels then cook in boiling water till they soft. As I used tinned once they are party cooked already.
  • For making white sauce in a pan heat butter , add garlic and saute.
  • Then add all purpose flour and roast in a medium flame , don’t turn them brown, you want the white sauce to be white.
  • Add milk little by little at the same time stirring constantly so that no lumps are form. I would recommend using a whisk to make white sauce.
  • After adding all the milk boil it till the sauce thickens a bit , add the cooked corn kernel, cheese, salt, oregano, pepper, chilli flakes and Mi them well.
  • After all the ingredinets are combined well and the cheese melts turn of the flame and let them cool for 10 mins.
  • Meanwhile you can toast your bread till the au gratin is cooling.
  • Now traditionally this augratin is baked in the oven with bread crumbs and cheese on top to get the crispy brown topping , but taste good like this even.
  • After to toast the bread , make them crispy, spread the thick augratin on top and enjoy immediately.

    Simply am in love with this stove top corn au gratin, actually the baked gratin sounds bit tedious when compared with this irresistible corn au gratin, well done Manju.
