Creamy Southern Fried Corn Recipes

SOUTHERN FRIED CORN RECIPE

Steps:

• Cut the corn off the cob with a sharp knife.
• Using the sharpest knife, cut down into the cob to get the milk of the corn.
• Heat up the bacon grease and add two tablespoons of softened butter.
• If you like the corn to be a bit caramelized, cook longer, stir less frequently.
• If you like corn to be creamier, cook for about ten minutes, and at the end add the remaining two tablespoons butter.
• At this point, you can add a splash of heavy cream if you want a creamier corn.
• Add a little bit of salt, and a lot of black pepper.
• Serve immediately.

MAMA'S FRIED CREAM CORN

Steps:

• Remove corn from cobs by using a corn grater or knife, and mash the whole kernels a little. Slice bacon into 1-inch pieces. Cook bacon until brown in a large skillet. Remove bacon from skillet and add 1/2 stick butter to bacon grease. Over medium-high heat, pour in the corn. Fry in the grease and butter mixture. Lower the temperature and cook for 5 minutes, then put on simmer until corn is done, 10 to 15 minutes. Add black pepper, to taste. If corn seems too dry, add a little milk or water.
• Serve as a side dish with favorite meal.

CREAMY FRIED CORN

Steps:

• Cook onion in bacon fat for a couple minutes on medium heat.
• Cut the corn from the cob and add to skillet and season to taste with salt and pepper; cook and stir on medium heat until just beginning to brown.
• Add a little half and half (milk, or a combination of both) and continue to cook, stirring, adding more liquid as it begins to evaporate. Add only enough half and half or milk to give it a creamy texture. If using half and half and the consistancy is too thick, add a little milk to thin.
• Continue cooking on low, stirring every now and then, until corn is tender, maybe 10-15 minutes.

FRIED CREAMED CORN

Steps:

• Place the cold fatback into a saute pan and begin to heat over medium-low heat. Allow the fat to melt and render as slowly as possible to insure that the pieces are completely rendered but remain very light golden brown. Add the butter to the pan, then the onions and allow the onions to sweat until very soft. Mix together the corn with the heavy cream and sugar, and add to the pan of fat and onions. Increase the heat to high and stir vigorously to emulsify the mixture. Once the mixture has reached a boil, turn off the heat and continue to stir for 30 seconds. Season with salt, black pepper and lemon juice. Serve immediately.

SOUTHERN CREAMED CORN

Steps:

• In a large bowl, cut the tip off cob. Cut the kernels from cob with a small paring knife. Using the back of the blade, scrape against the cob to press out the milky liquid.
• Whisk together sugar, flour, and salt and pepper, to taste. Combine with corn. Add the heavy cream and water. Mix.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, heat bacon grease. Add corn mixture and turn heat down to medium-low, stirring until it becomes creamy, about 30 minutes.
• Add the butter right before serving.

SOUTHERN FRIED CORN II

Steps:

• Place the corn kernels in a bowl and pour the heavy cream over the corn. Allow to sit while you fry the bacon and vegetables.
• Cook the bacon over medium heat until crisp. Add the onions, bell pepper and jalapeno. Cook until onion is translucent; about 4-5 minutes.
• Now add the corn/heavy cream mixture to the pot, stirring until ingredients are mixed well.
• Stir in the salt, black pepper and sugar.
• Reduce heat to simmer and cook, covered for about 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Serve hot.

SOUTHERN FRIED CORN RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Shuck and silk your corn. Make sure to remove all of the silks and then with a sharp knife cut the corn off into a bowl. Once the kernels are all cut off, take your knife and scrape down the cob to remove any juice that is left in it. This is what makes the corn creamy, so don't skip this step. In a skillet heat together the bacon drippings and the butter. If you don't understand where you get the bacon drippings, because we haven't cooked any bacon, you might not be ready for this recipe. But if you are not a bacon grease collector, like most good southern cooks are, cook about five or six pieces of bacon and use the drippings for this corn. Add the corn and let it cook on medium heat for about 15 minutes. Mix the cornstarch and the 1/2 cup cold milk until smooth. Pour that mixture into the corn and bring it up to a bubble. Stir and cook just until it thickens. Add the salt and pepper and stir again and serve.
