Step 1: Cook the Corn
If using frozen corn, thaw slightly. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the corn and cook for 3-5 minutes until tender. Drain thoroughly.
Step 2: Make the Cream Sauce
In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until bubbly and golden.
Step 3: Add the Milk
Slowly whisk in milk, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Cook until the mixture thickens slightly, about 3-5 minutes.
Step 4: Combine Corn and Sauce
Add the cooked corn to the cream sauce. Stir to coat evenly. Season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar if desired.
Step 5: Serve
Garnish with fresh parsley if using, and serve warm in a bowl or cup for a snack that truly hits the spot.
Enjoy!
