Okonomilotes Recipes

OKONOMILOTES

Steps:

• Heat a large grill pan over medium-high heat.
• Combine mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, and Mexican seasoning in a bowl and stir until blended.
• Grill corn in the preheated grill pan until warm yellow in color and grill marks form, turning every 2 to 3 minutes, about 6 minutes total. Set aside to cool.
• Use a pastry brush to coat grilled corn with the mayonnaise mixture. Sprinkle cotija cheese on the corn, rotating to cover all sides. Drizzle okonomiyaki sauce evenly over corn. Sprinkle aonori flakes on top and add bonito flakes.

SKILLET MEXICAN STREET CORN

Steps:

• Heat a 14-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the skillet. Spread frozen corn evenly across the skillet; do not stir. Cook corn for approximately 8 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine mayonnaise, sour cream, lime juice, cumin, paprika, chili powder, salt, and coriander in a large bowl. Set aside.
• Check the corn; it should be slightly charred. If not, allow to continue cooking for 4 more minutes (stirring is fine at this point.)
• Once corn is sufficiently browned/charred, transfer to the bowl with dressing and toss to coat. Add cotija cheese, red onion, and cilantro and mix until well combined. Serve immediately.

CORN CASSEROLE WITH CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine whole kernel corn plus liquid with cream-style corn in a large bowl; gently mix until combined. Stir in cream cheese and butter. Add cornbread mix, stir until incorporated. Mix in cauliflower until just blended. Transfer mixture to a 9x13-inch casserole and sprinkle with sugar.
• Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 30 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.

SKILLET ELOTE (MEXICAN STREET CORN)

Steps:

• Whisk mayonnaise, lime juice, and chili powder together in a bowl until evenly combined. Set aside.
• Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add corn and cook for 5 minutes without stirring. Toss around with a spatula and cook until corn has started to brown, about 3 minutes more. Remove from heat.
• Add reserved mayonnaise mixture and stir until evenly combined. Add cilantro and stir again. Transfer to serving plates and sprinkle cotija cheese over the top.
