A super simple corn cheese made by combining popping corn with savory mayonnaise, sugar, and cheese, then pan-frying until golden brown.

🙋 Recommended for

  • ⭐ Those who want to make the sweet and savory corn cheese in the style of a raw fish restaurant at home without fail.
  • ⭐ Those looking for a 10-minute super simple side dish to accompany beer or soju.

Ingredients needed 🛒2 servings

  • 1 can of corn kernels
  • Mayonnaise (to taste)
  • Sugar (a little)
  • Pizza cheese (mozzarella) (to taste)
  • Red pepper powder (a little)

Recipe 🍳

  1. Drain the corn kernels from the can and pat completely dry using a sieve.
  2. In a bowl, combine the drained corn kernels, mayonnaise, sugar, and pizza cheese, and mix evenly.
  3. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared cooking tool or pan, filling it completely.
  4. First heat over high heat. As soon as the mixture starts to bubble from all sides, immediately reduce the heat to low.
  5. Adjust the heat to prevent the mayonnaise from separating into oil, and cook until the cheese is melted.
  6. Once the cheese is melted and golden, turn off the heat. Optionally, sprinkle a little red pepper powder on top and serve.
  1. Drain the corn kernels, then mix with mayonnaise, sugar, and cheese.
  2. Spread in a pan, heat on high until it starts to bubble, then reduce to low and cook.
  3. Once the cheese is fully melted, finish with a sprinkle of red pepper powder.

Cooking tips 💡

  • If you cook on high heat from start to finish, the mayonnaise will separate and create a pool of oil. Be sure to reduce the heat to low once it starts bubbling.
  • Thoroughly remove moisture from the corn kernels to avoid a watery texture and achieve a rich, savory corn cheese.
