One of my favorite things about Korean restaurants is (what feels like) an endless amount of complementary side dishes that you get to enjoy with your meal. One of these include the sinfully delicious corn cheese.

It’s actually a common side dish in Korean bbq restaurants. In fact, more often than not, you’ll find it served in the insert surrounding the bbq grill!

Easy Korean Corn Cheese

This is a simple dish consisting of corn cooked with butter, mayonnaise and a dash of sugar. Then top it all off with as much cheese as you desire.

You’ll get to indulge in the perfect combination of sweet and savory with every bite.

And this is so quick and easy to make at home, requiring only a handful of ingredients, you’ll be able to get it ready within only 15 minutes!

Ingredients

  • 1 can whole kernel corn 15.25 oz
  • Butter
  • Japanese mayo: You can also swap it with regular mayo. However, I generally prefer using Japanese mayo (such as Kewpie mayo)
  • Sugar
  • Garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper
  • Hot oil (optional)
  • Shredded mozzarella cheese 
  • Dried parsley (for garnish)

(For full ingredient measurements, please proceed to the recipe card below.)

Instructions

  1. In a frying pan, melt butter over medium high heat. Once the butter melts, add the canned corn that has been drained.
  2. Let the corn cook until most of the liquid in the pan evaporates (about 3 minutes) while stirring occasionally.
  3. Turn heat down to medium and add Japanese mayo, sugar, garlic powder, salt, pepper and hot oil. Stir until well combined.
  4. Add shredded mozzarella on top. If you are using an oven safe frying pan, broil for 3-4 minutes or until the cheese turns golden brown (see notes for alternative).
  5. Garnish with dried parsley. Serve while hot and enjoy!

Notes for Korean Corn Cheese

  • Cheese amount: Add as much or as little cheese based on your preference.
  • Stovetop version: If you are not using an oven safe frying pan, turn the heat down to low and add cheese on top. Cover with a lid and leave for 2 minutes or until the cheese melts.
  • Melt cheese: Alternatively, you can also use a blowtorch.

Perfect for sharing but I honestly can finish this all on my own! I’m keeping it simple for this one but sometimes I like to add tomatoes, avocado and sour cream.

Soy sauce eggs @farahjeats This Malaysian style Soy sauce eggs @farahjeats 
This Malaysian style soy sauce eggs is one of my favorite easy meals and it’s also a comfort food not just for me but for many Malaysians. I ate this a lot growing up and during my student days. Probably one of the first recipes I learned how to cook!
The sauce is just sweet soy sauce (kicap/kecap manis), light soy sauce and water!

Savory Oatmeal @farahjeats I’m a savory kind o Savory Oatmeal @farahjeats 
I’m a savory kind of girl and have always preferred my oatmeals savory. Some people think it’s weird, I say don’t knock it until you’ve tried it. The best part? You can be creative with this! I’ve added pesto to my oatmeal before and it was delicious.
I also prefer a thicker oatmeal, add more water if you don’t. 
Would you try this or are you sticking to your sweet oatmeal? 😋
