Stir Fried Corn and Leek with Fresh Basil

Stir Fried Corn and Leek with Fresh Basil

The cumin really helps balance out the natural sweetness in the corn, without adding too much heat to the finished dish.

Ingredients:

  • 2 Cups corn (4 Ears Shucked and cleaned)
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter
  • 1 Teaspoon Ground Cumin
  • 1-2 Leek Stalks, white and soft green parts only
  • Salt and Pepper
  • 2-3 Tablespoons Fresh Basil, chopped
  • 1-2 Tablespoons Lemon Juice

Instructions:

  1. Heat the butter (or vegetable oil) in a skillet over medium heat.
  2. Slice the leek, and add to the skillet and cook down until tender and slightly wilted. 3-5 minutes. Season with cumin, salt and pepper.
  3. Add the corn and stir fry until corn is heated through and tender, only about 5-10 minutes.
  4. Stir in the fresh basil and drizzle the lemon juice over top.
  5. Serves roughly 4.

Enjoy!
