Creamed Corn, Bean and Chorizo Gratin recipe by Cherrypick

Fold creamed sweetcorn and beans in a sauce spiced with chorizo and bake until golden and bubbling. Serve as a main or as a side to a juicy roast chicken.

Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Put the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Cook the chorizo for 6-8 mins until crispy and the fat has rendered out, then remove to a plate using a slotted spoon. Stir the onion into the chorizo oil with a pinch of salt and cook for 6-7 mins until soft and just starting to take on colour, then add the chipotle chilli flakes. Cook for another minute until fragrant.

Step 2

Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip the sweetcorn and cream into the pan. Simmer for 5 mins until reduced slightly. Blend the mixture using a hand blender, but leave some of it chunky. Stir in the butter beans along with their liquid, half of the crispy chorizo and season to taste.

Step 3

Tip the mixture into a 2-litre baking dish (if cooking for 4), then cover the top with the cheddar and panko. Bake for 20-25 mins until bubbly and golden brown. Sprinkle with the remaining chorizo and the jalapeños to serve.
