Ingredients
8 or more ears fresh corn on the cob, or 4 ½ cups frozen whole corn kernels
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup diced sweet yellow pepper
½ cup diced sweet red pepper
½ cup diced green pepper
2 teaspoons curry powder
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
½ cup heavy cream
Preparation
- Step 1
If using fresh corn, shuck the ears and discard the husks and corn silk. Bring enough water to a boil to cover the corn cobs when they are added. Drop the corn into the water. When the water returns to a boil, cover and remove from the heat. Let stand five minutes and no longer. Drain the corn and let cool.
- Step 2
Cut and scrape the corn from the cobs. There should be about four and one-half cups.
- Step 3
Heat four tablespoons of the butter in a skillet and add the yellow, red and green peppers. Cook, stirring, about one minute. Sprinkle with the curry powder and cook, stirring, about 30 seconds. Add the corn (if using frozen corn, it should also be added now) and the salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the remaining two tablespoons of butter and the cream. Bring to a simmer, stirring. Serve hot.

Pretty nice in its simplicity. Cut the butter out for 2T coconut oil and used 1/4C coconut milk rather than cream to make vegan. If using butter and cream, I would still cut back. Let the corn and peppers be the focus. Cooked the curry powder in the oil first, then peppers, then corn. Either way, recommended recipe. Great as a main over grains or just a fab side. I will definitely make this again. Colorful, warming, frugal, and cheerful.
