JJ. you'll have to excuse this Cajun, I have no idea what Kielbasa is. The recipe sounds great though.

Corn Maquechoe

12 ears fresh corn
1/2 c. cooking oil
2 large onions, finely chopped
4 clove garlic, chopped fine
salt and cayenne pepper
black pepper to taste
1 egg yolk
1/2 c. sugar
1 c. milk

Cut and scrape the corn from the cob into a large bowl. Put the cooking oil, corn, bell peppers, onions, garlic, black pepper, cayenne pepper and salt in a large pot and cook down, stirring continuously so it will not stick. About 15 minutes before the corn is cooked, mix egg yolk, sugar and milk into a small bowl and heat. And beaten mixture to corn and cook until thickened and corn is done.

There is several different ways to cook this recipe, so I plan on posting some more of them. You will love all of them.

Corn Maquechoe: The easy way, this is a shorten version of the one I posted yesterday. Take a half a stick of butter and saute' a half and oinion and half a bell pepper until tender, then add one can of whole corn and one can of cream style corn, along with one cup of milk. Season with salt and pepper or Cajun seasonal, how ever you like it seasoned. Cook it on low for a few minutes and your ready to eat. Sai Bon!
