Corn Pudding Stuffed With Greens Food

CORN PUDDING STUFFED WITH GREENS

Steps:

• In a large cast-iron skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat, add the bacon and cook for 3 minutes before adding onions. Cook for 12 minutes until bacon and onions are browned. Add the greens and stir well. Then add the water and the stock and crushed red pepper. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring on occasionally, until water is down to about a cup and stems are tender, about 45 minutes. Adjust salt. Drain well, then finely chop greens and bacon.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Melt butter in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the onion, celery and diced red pepper, and cook until soft. Add the garlic, sage, basil, black pepper and crushed red pepper. Cook for 1 minute more. Remove from heat and pour into a large mixing bowl. Add crumbled cornbread and stir. Stir in cream. In a small bowl, beat the eggs well, then add to cornbread mixture and mix well.
• Fill 8 buttered 6-ounce glass custard cups halfway with the cornbread mixture. Spoon in 2 tablespoons of the chopped mustard greens. Add more cornbread mixture, but do not fill to the top. Place the cups in a 9-by 12-inch baking dish, and carefully add water to about a half-inch. Cover with foil and bake for 50 to 60 minutes. The pudding should be firm to the touch in the middle of each dish. While it is still hot, turn out each pudding and serve. Or wrap well in plastic wrap and freeze. Allow to thaw in the refrigerator and reheat before serving.

YELLOWEDGE GROUPER WITH SAVORY SWEET CORN PUDDING, OYSTER MUSHROOM VINAIGRETTE AND PETITE GREENS

Steps:

• For the vinaigrette: Heat a medium skillet, and then add the mushrooms and saute in the olive oil, sprinkling with salt and black pepper, until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the thyme, garlic and shallots and saute for 1 more minute. Reduce the heat and add the sherry vinegar and honey. Stir to combine. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if needed, and reserve for plating.
• For the corn pudding: Puree the stock and corn in a high-speed blender. Strain the corn puree through a fine strainer, and then pour into a double boiler over moderate heat. Season with salt and pepper. Stir often; the mixture will begin to thicken from the natural starch in the corn. Cook until desired consistency, and then stir in the butter and creme fraiche. Taste and adjust the salt and pepper, if needed, and keep warm.
• For the grouper: Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the fillets with salt and pepper. Add the oil to the skillet, and then carefully add the grouper fillets; do not overcrowd the skillet. Sear the fish well, while adding the butter and fresh thyme. Cook until the grouper is well seared and just cooked through, 3 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet.
• To serve, plate 4 ounces of corn pudding into each of four 12-inch shallow bowls. Place a warm grouper fillet in the center, and garnish with the mushroom vinaigrette and petite greens. Serve and enjoy!
