Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups frozen or canned sweet corn drained if canned
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • 1 tablespoon heavy cream optional for creaminess
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh cracked black pepper optional, for garnish

Equipment

  • Medium saucepan
  • Wooden spoon or silicone spatula

Method
 

  1. Heat the Corn:
  2. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add the corn and stir until heated through (about 4–5 minutes if frozen, 2–3 minutes if canned).
  3. Add Butter & Sugar:
  4. Stir in the butter and sugar. Let the butter melt completely and coat the corn evenly.
  5. Make It Creamy (Optional):
  6. Add the heavy cream and stir until well combined. This gives the corn a creamy texture similar to the restaurant version.
  7. Season:
  8. Add salt to taste. Optionally, sprinkle black pepper for a mild kick.
  9. Rest:
  10. Let the corn sit for 2 minutes off heat to allow the flavors to settle before serving.
