This was okay - I used frozen corn and tilapia - which probably changed the expected results. Thanks for sharing!

This is a nice dish. The corn sauce is the real star here! I cooked it until almost all of the liquid was gone, and then pureed it. It would probably go well with a variety of other things too!
