This straightforward side dish combines sweet corn kernels with a spicy kick from jalapeno and the distinctive tang of blue cheese. Blended with sour cream, milk and eggs, it bakes into a golden, set pudding. It is an excellent accompaniment to grilled meats or garlicky main courses, offering a pleasing contrast of flavours. The recipe yields 4-6 servings and requires about 70 minutes to prepare and bake.
