This savoury [[Cornbread|cornbread]] could be served as an [[Accompaniment|accompaniment]] to a [[Main course|main course]] or [[Barbecue|barbecue]], as a [[Starter|starter]] or just as a really nice savoury nibble. It is based on Jamie Oliver's recipe of the same name, though I recall having to adjust the quantities quite a bit from his original recipe.

''Tasty, but heavy going''

4.1/5 

Nice, but too much gives me indigestion - and I always eat too much!

===[[Mise en place]]===
* Preheat the [[Oven|oven]] to 200° C (400° F - gas 6)
===Method===

| Add the [[Butter|butter]] to a [[Frying pan|frying pan]] or [[Wok|wok]], give it a good grind of [[Black pepper|black pepper]] and gently [[Fry|fry]] the [[Onions|onions]] for 15 minutes
| Once the [[Onions|onions]] are golden, carefully add the drained [[Sweetcorn|sweetcorn]]
| [[Stir-fry]] the [[Sweetcorn|sweetcorn]] for a few minutes then remove the pan from the heat and set to one side.

| [[Bake]] for 20 minutes then carefully remove from the oven and sprinkle the top with the remaining sliced [[Chilies|chilies]] and [[Cheese|cheese]].
| [[Bake]] for a further 10 minutes.

Don't forget the [[greaseproof paper]] or you will find it very hard to get the cornbread out of the tins. :-(
