This is one of my favorite “local” recipes from Trinidad & Tobago. It’s easy. It’s delicious. It’s cheese and corn … what could be better?

Ingredients

1 tbsp sugar
1 1/2 tbsp sifted flour
1/2 lb. grated cheese
1 can corn (drained)
1/2 can evaporated milk
1 egg
1 onion (finely chopped)
1/2 sweet pepper (finely chopped)
1 tbsp butter

Instructions

Melt butter in pan and add flour, stir to avoid lumps.
Add milk stirring gradually to avoid lumps, then add grated cheese.
Add corn and sugar, put in onion.
Add egg last to hold ingredients together.
Bake in oven at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes.
