Creole Corn Maque Choux

Step 1

Heat the oil  in a large skillet. Add the onion and sauté over medium-low heat until golden.

Step 2

Add the celery and bell peppers and continue to sauté until all the vegetables are just tender, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle in the flour, stirring it in until it disappears.

Step 3

Add the corn kernels, tomatoes, and nondairy milk to the skillet. Cook uncovered for 5 to 7 minutes, or until everything is well heated through and the tomatoes have softened a bit.

Step 4

Dissolve the flour in just enough water to make it smooth and flowing. Stir it into the skillet and stir until the liquid in the skillet thickens.

Step 5

Season with salt and cayenne pepper. Remove from the heat and serve straight from the skillet, or transfer to a serving dish for the table.
