An old cajun recipe for stewed corn & tomatoes. Enjoyable at any time of year, but I love to make it on hot summer afternoons as a side to
|
|
a sausage dish. Pairs well with brown ales.
|
|
|
|
## Ingredients
|
|
|
|
- A little sugar
|
|
- A good bit of grease (about a handful)
|
|
- Handful of chopped onion
|
|
- Handful of chopped bell pepper
|
|
- Eight ears of corn
|
|
- Handful of chopped tomatoes
|
|
- Salt & Pepper (to taste)
|
|
|
|
## Directions
|
|
|
|
1. Clean the corn and cut lengthwise about a thumbnail (1/4 in) from the top and scrape down using the soft end of a knife (to keep the juices).
|
|
2. Mix all ingredients in a bowl excluding the grease. Salt & pepper to taste.
|
|
3. Pour mixture into a pot with hot grease in it at low heat.
|
|
4. Cover pot and cook for 45 minutes, and stir as you get up for more beers.
|
|
5. Serve. (Serves 4-6)
