INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 2 ears corn
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
  • 1/2 yellow onion, diced
  • 3 cups water
  • 2 cups milk
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh sage leaves
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

DIRECTIONS

  1. Grill corn in the husks, or roast in the oven; cut kernels from cob.
  2. In a heavy 4-quart saucepan heat oil over medium heat. Stir in garlic and onions; reduce heat to low and cook until onions are translucent.
  3. Stir in water and milk and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Slowly stir in cornmeal, whisking thoroughly. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring often to prevent sticking and burning. Season with salt and pepper; simmer 15 minutes more.
  4. When cornmeal is tender, stir in corn, sage and Parmesan cheese. Transfer to a large bowl to serve.
