[gertbysea]

Scalloped Corn

Serves 4 at least

1   small onion quartered
Wedge of red or green capiscum
1/2   tbs butter
1/2   tbs oil
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp mustard
90 gms flour
salt
pepper
1 cup milk
1 egg
1 can corn or creamed corn



Put onion capiscum in   chop 5 for 3 seconds
Add butter and oil. 3 minutes 100 and speed 1

Add flour and seasonings . 3 minutes 100 speed 1

Add milk  3 minutes 100   speed 1

Add corn and egg  5 seconds   speed 4

Pour into oven proof dish and bake at 160 or so for 20 to 30 minutes.

You could top with breadcrumbs

After tasting I remembered that it was very bland so probably why I liked it as a kid but it was insipid so I added a 1/2 tsp dried chilli flakes.

I adapted this from my  more than 50 year old  betty Crocker Cookbook which is one of the few I have kept over the years.

When it is out of the oven I will post a pic with Tapatalk.

Thanks Astarra for this challenge.

Fantastic Gert. Especially the orchid, it's lovely, as of course is the scalloped corn. I'll definitely try it.

I wouldn't t be in a hurry cookie 1. It is pretty ordinary. Like I said kids would like it for something different.

I have two orchids from the same plant. I ignore it completely but it still keeps producing every few months.

Well done Gretchen, how did you eat it - on it's own or with something else.

Bright colours really are lovely in orchids, it's gorgeous.

Ate it with the chicken and a very colourful red cabbage lettuce, feta and olive salad. DH loved the b****y corn. I put a fair amount of chilli in it though. Hope he doesn't ask for a repeat.

Ha ha, you might have to buy another can of creamed corn.  That would be very funny Gert.

Now, how did I know I was going to get that type of answer Gretchen

That looks and sounds lovely, Gert! I'm sure my girls would love it.
Thanks for the conversion and joining the challenge! 

BTW, love the flower!

I made this as an accompaniment for DS birthday lunch. I added extra mustard, paprika and added the chilli flakes.
It wasn't bland at all. I had a 9yr old and 5 yr old as well as kids in their early 20's plus adults and they all enjoyed it with the lamb done on the bbq.

I'm in the middle of making this, and as usual, didn't read through the recipe. I can't find any mention of flour in the ingredients. How much flour should I add?

Oh bugger. No one else has noticed . About 90 gms I should,think. Sorry.

Thanks, Gert. I just tipped some in and it seemed to work OK. I also added garlic, ginger, turmeric and lots of chilli as I'm addicted to these flavours. I should have added some salt.
