Chili Cheese Cornbread A Pudding Recipes

CHILLI CHEESE CORNBREAD

Steps:

• This is one of the most delicious cornbreads I've ever had. You get incredible flavour from the onions and sweetcorn, while the cornmeal gives it a rustic, spongy texture that's so brilliant. Two of my favourites, chilli and cheese, do their thing in this bread and really take the flavour to a whole other level. You can serve this cornbread alongside soups or stews, but frankly, I think a good slice of this, with a bit of crunchy salad, makes a brilliant lunch. You could also reheat it in a dry pan the next day for breakfast and eat it with poached eggs and some smoky bacon . . . totally delicious.
• Preheat the oven to 200ºC/400ºF/gas 6. Grease a 22cm cake tin with oil and line the base with greaseproof paper.
• Peel and finely slice the onions. Melt the butter in a frying pan on a medium heat, add the onions, then fry gently for 15 to 20 minutes, or until caramelised, golden and sticky.
• Hold the corn cobs upright on a board and carefully run a small knife from the top of the corn to the bottom, cutting all the kernels off.
• Add to the caramelised onions and cook for a further 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.
• Beat the eggs in a large bowl, then mix in the cornmeal, milk, baking powder, flour and a good pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
• Grate the cheese, add most of it to the bowl, then beat until well mixed. Deseed, finely chop and stir in 2 chillies, along with the cooled onion and corn mixture.
• Pour the mixture into the prepared cake tin. Finely slice and sprinkle over the remaining chilli, then pop the cornbread into the oven for 35 minutes, or until golden and cooked through. About 10 minutes before it's ready, sprinkle over your remaining cheese and return it to the oven.
• Cool for 15 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack or serving plate, cheesy side up. Serve straightaway - it's unbelievably good when it's warm.

CHEESY GREEN CHILE CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Generously coat a 9-inch square baking dish or 9-inch cast-iron skillet with cooking spray. Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
• Whisk together the milk, sour cream, butter and egg in a medium bowl. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk to combine. Fold in the onions, green chiles and cheese.
• Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake until the cornbread springs back when pressed in the center, 25 to 35 minutes. Let cool in the baking dish for about 15 minutes. Loosen the edges, then slice into wedges or squares and serve warm or at room temperature.

CHILI CHEESE CORNBREAD (A PUDDING)

Steps:

• 1. About an hour before you want to bake this cornbread, roast a green bell pepper, moisten a dry Ancho chili, and sauté the onion. 1. To roast a pepper, use a long handled fork and rotate over an open flame on stove until blackened and cooked. Remove from heat and wrap in tin foil to steam and cool. When cooled, rub blackened skin off and discard seeds. Chop and set aside. You can alternately roast in in oven at very high temperature until black, etc. 2. To prepare the dry chili, place it in a heat proof dish and pour boiling water to immerse. Steep until cool enough to touch. Remove seeds and chop very fine, almost a pulp. Set aside. 3. To sauté the onion, heat the bacon fat on medium low heat and add onions, occasionally stirring for about 4-5 minutes until cooked and slightly browned.
• 2. When you are ready to prepare the cornbread, grease a 10 inch iron skillet with the unsalted butter or shortening. Measure the buttermilk or make the substitute and set for 5 minutes. Beat the egg in a small bowl. Measure the oil and mix in the bell pepper, chili, cheese, oregano, and sautéed onion. Stir to mix well.
• 3. In a mixing bowl, measure flour, cornmeal, sugar, salt and baking powder. Mix well to combine.
• 4. Pour the buttermilk, egg, and oil + chili, bell, onion, etc. over the the dry ingredients. Fold to just mix with a rubber spatula. Do not over mix. Turn batter out to the iron pan and bake immediately at 425 degrees for about 19-20 minutes. Cool on rack and cool to just warm, about 30 minutes or so.
• 5. Note: cornbread will slice in wedges as traditional cornbread, but don't slice in half, just butter the top if desired.

CORNBREAD-CHILI CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the oil until shimmering, about 2 minutes. Add the onion and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the ground beef to the onion and saute, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain off any excess fat. Stir in the salsa, corn, vegetable broth, chili powder, cumin, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Transfer the mixture into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish, smoothing into an even layer.
• In a large bowl, mix together the corn muffin mix with about 1 1/2 cups milk, or just enough to make it easy to spread. Spread it thinly over the chili mixture. Bake until browned to top, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside for 10 minutes to allow the casserole to set. Top with the Cheddar and sour cream before serving.
