MEXICAN SWEET CORN CAKE



Mexican Sweet Corn Cake image

I love Mexican Food! This is a tasty little side dish served at restaurants such as Chi Chi's, El Torito, and Chevy's Fresh Mex. This is more like a corn pudding, but I have known others to fry the dough into a pancake. Masa Harina, one of the ingredients, means corn flour. I have found it at major grocery chains or you can find it at a store that specializes in Hispanic foods. I could eat this for breakfast, lunch , and dinner.

MICROWAVE MEXICAN RESTAURANT SWEET CORN CAKE



Microwave Mexican Restaurant Sweet Corn Cake image

Copy Cat Recipe. I wanted a quick recipe to copy the sweet corn cakes that are served at Mexican restaurants like El Torito and Chi Chi's. This is ready to eat in about 15 minutes. If you don't have masa harina flour on hand, you can add an additional 1/4 cup of yellow cornmeal, but the masa harina flour adds the authentic taste to this dish. For a less sweet dish, reduce granulated sugar to 1/3 cup. For a firmer sweet corn cake, microwave an additional 3-minutes.

Time 15m

Yield 6 cups, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups milk
2 cups water
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1/4 cup masa harina flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 (15 ounce) can creamed corn
4 tablespoons butter, melted
1 egg, beaten
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients well, stir out any dry lumps in batter and pour into a 3-quart covered, microwaveable casserole dish.
  • Cover and microwave on high for 6-minutes.
  • Stir well. Stir bottom and sides of dish well to remove any dry lumps.
  • Cover and microwave on high for another 6-minutes.
  • Stir well. Stir bottom and sides of dish well to remove any large lumps.
  • Serve warm using an ice cream scoop or disher.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn. Fresh corn has a sweeter flavor and a more tender texture than frozen or canned corn.
  • Don't overcook the corn. Overcooked corn will be tough and chewy. Cook the corn just until it is tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Use a food processor to grind the corn. A food processor will make quick work of grinding the corn into a fine meal. You can also use a blender, but it may take a little longer.
  • Season the cornmeal batter well. The cornmeal batter should be well-seasoned with salt, pepper, and chili powder. You can also add other seasonings, such as cumin, garlic powder, or onion powder.
  • Cook the corn cakes over medium heat. Cook the corn cakes over medium heat so that they have a chance to cook through without burning.
  • Serve the corn cakes with your favorite toppings. Corn cakes can be served with a variety of toppings, such as butter, sour cream, salsa, or guacamole.

Conclusion:

Mexican Sweet Corn Cakes are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are made with fresh corn, cornmeal, and a variety of seasonings. The corn cakes are cooked in a skillet until they are golden brown and crispy. Serve them with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
