Make it with Regular Premium Pork Sausage
Directions
- Cook sausage in large nonstick skillet over MEDIUM-HIGH heat 8-10 minutes or until thoroughly cooked, stirring frequently; crumble and drain. Return to skillet. Stir in corn; set aside to cool.
- Combine water, 6 tablespoons butter, eggs, red pepper, jalapeño pepper, onions, cilantro and black pepper in large bowl. Stir in sausage mixture.
- Mix cornmeal, baking powder and salt in small bowl. Add to sausage mixture; mix well.
- Heat 2 teaspoons of the remaining butter in skillet over MEDIUM heat. For each corn cake, pour a generous 1-tablespoon batter into skillet; cook 2-3 minutes or until edge is slightly dry. Turn and cook second side 2 minutes or until bottom is golden brown. Stack corn cakes on a heated plate; cover to keep warm.
- Repeat with remaining batter, using small amount of remaining butter to grease skillet between batches. Serve warm with a small dollop of sour cream and drizzle of chili sauce, if desired.
