(Saralynn: Let me preface this by saying that I don't have the recipe on hand for this dish. My mom makes it often, but she is away from her recipe box for a few months, so we tried to figure out a non-exact version for me to make at Thanksgiving. I didn't measure anything, either, but hopefully this is sort of close to what I did!)- 3 T butter
- 2 to 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 to 4 T sesame seeds
- 1 green pepper, finely chopped**
- 1-1/2 lbs frozen corn
- salt to taste
- 1/2 t dried basil
- In a medium-sized cooking pot, melt the butter over medium-high heat.
- Add the garlic and sesame seeds, and sauté one or two minutes.
- Stir in the dried basil, green pepper and frozen corn. Sauté for about five minutes, stirring frequently. Season with salt as needed.
- Turn the heat down and let cook for another five minutes or so, stirring occasionally, until the corn is hot through and fully cooked. Serve hot.
**You can use pimiento or green chili instead of green pepper for added flavor.
