Southwestern Corn

 
   
   
   
Ingredients -  
   

4 Dried Chilies
1/2 pound Butter
1 small Onion, chopped fine
12 Cherry Tomatoes, halved
1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
Salt and Fresh Ground Black Pepper
1 cup Half and Half
3 to 4 cups Fresh Sweet Corn Kernels

 
   
Preparation:  
   

Discard the stems of the chilies. Break them open, shake out the seeds, and tear out the veins.

Tear the chilies in large pieces and toast them in a low oven, 200° F. for about 5 minutes. Pulverize them in a spice grinder and reserve.

Melt the butter in a large skillet, add the onion, and sauté until softened, about 3 to 5 minutes.

Add the tomatoes, oregano, seasonings, and the half and half and mix well.

Stir in the pulverized chilies and let the mixture simmer 2 to 3 minutes.

Add the corn kernels and simmer 2 to 3 minutes more.
