Korean Corn Cheese is a creamy, cheesy, and slightly sweet side dish or dip made with corn, mayo, sugar, and mozzarella. A Korean BBQ favorite, it’s easy to make and irresistibly delicious.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups canned sweet corn, drained (or fresh/frozen corn)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tbsp butter (optional, for richness)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Chopped green onions or parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat a small oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add butter if using for extra richness.
  2. In a bowl, mix corn, mayo, sugar, salt, and pepper until evenly combined.
  3. Spread the mixture evenly in the skillet.
  4. Top with shredded mozzarella, covering the surface completely.
  5. Cook on the stove until bubbly at the edges (about 5 minutes).
  6. Transfer to the oven or broiler and broil for 2–4 minutes until the top is golden and lightly browned.
  7. Garnish with chopped green onions or parsley and serve hot.

Notes

  • Add diced jalapeños or chili flakes for heat.
  • Use cheddar or Korean cheese blends for variation.
  • Mix in cream cheese for added creaminess.
  • Fresh summer corn enhances sweetness and flavor.
  • Air fryer-friendly: 375°F for 8–10 minutes in a small baking dish.
