Mexican Corn Salad


Ingredients
5 cups corn cut from the cob ~4 large ears) (or frozen corn, not thawed,
6 tbsp  butter
1/2 tsp each salt and pepper
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1/2 cup parmesan cheese , finely grated
1 tbsp Jalapeno  (optional)

2 - 3 tbsp lime juice , fresh (plus more to taste)

GARNISHES

Jalapeno slices, coriander/cilantro leaves, lime wedges , optional
Instructions

Cut off kernels: Cut the corn off the cob (see photo in post or video for how I do this without getting corn everywhere!) If using frozen, do not thaw.
Brown corn: Melt butter in a large skillet over high heat. Add garlic and stir for 10 seconds. Add corn and cook for 5 minutes, stirring every now and then, until you get lovely golden brown bits and the corn is cooked and sweet (don't stir constantly, harder to brown).
Season corn: Add salt and pepper halfway through cooking corn.
Toss with dressing: Transfer corn into large bowl. Add mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice and parmesan. Toss well to combine - heat will "melt" dressing. Add coriander/cilantro, red onion, green onion and jalaepno. Toss again.

Buttermilk Pie


Ingredients :
1 c butter, melted
6 eggs, beaten
2 Tbsp cornstarch
2 c sugar
1 tsp salt
1 c buttermilk
1 tsp vanilla
2 (9in) deep dish unbaked pie shells

Directions :
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk and vanilla extract.
3. In a large bowl, add salt, corn starch, and sugar.
4. Melt butter in the microwave. Pour the butter on top of dry ingredients. Mix well.
5. Once all this is mixed then pour the egg mixture on top. Stir until all is incorporated.
6. Pour into pie shells evenly. Bake for 50 minutes to 1 hour. Pies will be a little jiggle but not runny when done.
7. *TIP: If you have a pie shield, place it on top of crust about 35 min into cooking. If you don’t you can cover the crust with foil to keep it from burning.
8. *TIP: When the pie is done, if the butter looks like it is sitting on top of the pies. Just give it time to rest and it will seep back into the pie. Also placing the pie in the fridge will also help this.

When you make this cake you can use a good chocolate fudge cake mix or make it from scratch because all the toping you can't tell the difference … Sandra

Scratch Cake
2 cups sugar
1 & 3/4 cups flour
3/4 cup cocoa powder
1 & 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 & 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 cup milk or heavy Cream
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup boiling water

For the Whipped Cream Cheese Buttercream:
1 cup cream cheese
3/4 cup butter
1/2 tablespoon vanilla extract
4 cups powdered sugar

First, preheat your oven to 350F.
Spray 3 round cake pans with cooking spray
Dust the pans lightly with flour, set aside.


In a Large mixing bowl or mixer combine the Flour, Hersheys cocoa, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and the salt.


Add in the milk, oil, eggs and the vanilla extract & mix until everything is thoroughly incorporated. Once all combined, stir in the boiling water last; mix again, the batter will be very thin.
Pour the batter evenly in each of the sprayed/floured cake pans


Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of each layer comes out clean. Once fully baked, remove from oven & allow the 3 cakes to cool for at least 10-15 minutes before removing them.


Once removed, transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling completely.
I always use a cake leveler to make sure the layers are even, you can also use a serrated knife
While they finish cooling, prepare your frostings.

Whipped Cream Cheese Buttercream Frosting Instructions:

Whip the cream cheese & the butter with an electric mixer on high speed for about 30 seconds. Once combined begin adding in 1/2 cup of powdered sugar at time, making sure each half cup is fully incorporated before mixing in another 1/2 cup., add in the vanilla extract & whip one last time for about 30 more seconds on high and beat one minute more until nice & fluffy

Chocolate Cream Cheese Buttercream Frosting Instructions:

In a large bowl beat the butter & cream cheese with an electric mixer and begin adding in the powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time again
add in the cocoa and the milk & vanilla
Whip all of the ingredients until they are thoroughly incorporated

Beat at High speed for about one minute or until fluffy.
Once you are ready to assemble the cake:
Level the cakes with a cake leveler to assure perfect stacking of the cake layers
Place the bottom layer on a cake plate.

Spread 3/4 cup of the cream cheese buttercream filling over the bottom cake layer
Top with the second leveled layer and repeat the process.
Lastly, top with the third layer.
Frost just the very top with the remaining Whipped cream cheese buttercream & refrigerate for about 15 minutes

Finally, remove from the refrigerator & frost the top layer gently with the chocolate cream cheese buttercream & all over the sides of the cake.
Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Oriental Style Meat Balls



Ingredients

Make your meatballs from your recipe

Sauce
2 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
3 tbsp honey
1 1/2 tbsp Oyster sauce (sub Hoisin)
1 1/2 tbsp Chinese cooking wine
1/2 tsp normal ground black pepper

Stir Fry
2 tbsp  canola oil
1 garlic clove , finely minced
1/2 onion , peeled and sliced
 lb ground beef / make meatballs

Instructions

Mix the Sauce ingredients in a bowl.
Heat the oil in a wok or large heavy based skillet over high heat until it is smoking.
Add the onion and garlic and cook for 1 minute or until the onion becomes translucent. Keep it moving so the garlic doesn't burn.

Add the beef and stir fry for 1 minute until just cooked to your liking, then remove into bowl.
Turn the heat down to medium high, pour in Sauce - it will start simmering very quickly! Let it cook for 1 minute or so until it becomes syrupy - the bubbles will be larger and caramel colour.
Add the beef and onion back into the wok, along with any juices pooled on the plate. Toss in the sauce until just warmed through - 1 minute at most. Don't overcook the beef - that would be tragic!
Serve immediately with rice.
