Steps:
- 1. My husband loved this so much, he had some before it was completely cooked. I hope you like this as much as we did. It was really great, & I created a new recipe in the process.
- 2. Prep the corn into a large bowl by removing the kernal's from each ear of corn with a sharp knife. Then run the sharp blade of the knife along the side of the cob to remove any pulp/milk mixture still left on the cob. Repeat this with each ear of corn.
- 3. Add the chopped coarsely grated carrots.
- 4. Now add the chopped chive. As much or as little as you like, it does add just a hint of the onion/garlic flavor.
- 5. Stir to blend the mixture together.
- 6. In a large Measuring cup add the milk and corn starch & stir until the corn starch dissolves into the milk. Then pour the milk mixture into the bowl of corn mixture.
- 7. Add the Can't Believe It's Not Butter or cooking oil to a 8 inch skillet,(I used cast iron) because it holds the heat evenly, and mama always use it for fried corn.
- 8. When the oil or butter has heated over medium low heat, pour In the corn mixture, and immediately begin to stir. Stir on a regular basis or mixture will stick to bottom of skillet. If need be add a bit of water, I had to add an additional 1/2 cup or so of water after corn started to cook and mixture thickened. Allow to cook 15 to 20 minutes, Remove from heat and serve immediately.

Tips:
- Select sweet, tender carrots: Choose carrots that are firm and have a bright, even color. Avoid carrots that are limp or have blemishes.
- Use fresh chives: Fresh chives have a more delicate flavor and aroma than dried chives. If you don't have fresh chives, you can substitute 1 teaspoon of dried chives.
- Don't overcook the carrots: Carrots should be cooked until they are tender-crisp. Overcooked carrots will be mushy and lose their flavor.
- Add the chives at the end of cooking: This will help preserve their flavor and aroma.
- Serve the carrots warm or at room temperature: Chive carrots can be served as a side dish or as a snack.
