Cajun Corn Hash




This is a Cajun style fried shucked corn. I first heard about this dish from a TV show on a Cajun cooking and celebration show from Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations (Anthony Bourdain No Reservations Cajun Country) The person making this corn hash showed the recipe quickly and I am making this just from the TV show and I will let you know how it comes out.

Recipe


  • 3 or 4 ears of corn shucked and cut off of cob
  • 3 different colored bell peppers chopped
  • 1 or 2 onions chopped
  • Tasso I made my own (Tasso that I made) cubbed
  • Cajun seasoning 1 tbsp and or cayenne pepper to tase
  • butter at least 1 cube maybe more

First off shuck and cut corn off of cob and chop all your vegetables







Melt some butter in a pan and add corn.






Brown or toast the corn depending on how you like it. A lot of flavor is released by doing it this way.







Cut up your Tasso







Once you get the corn how you like it add the rest of vegetables and a bit more butter. Add seasoning and cook until the vegetables are soft.







Add Tasso







Cook until Tasso is brown and blended in well with vegetables. Check for seasoning you may want to add more.








Great with rice and as an accompaniment to other Cajun foods.







You could change the order of adding the ingredients to cook if you like. This is what I saw being done. They also add cayenne pepper to everything and I did not. If you don't add enough seasoning or salt the sweetness of the corn and peppers will out shine everything but ultimately it depends on your taste. So go out and make this your dish!
