1
Prepare the Sauce
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the flour to create a roux and cook for about 1-2 minutes until lightly golden.
2
Add Milk
Slowly whisk in the milk, making sure to eliminate any lumps. Continue to whisk until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
3
Incorporate Cheese and Spices
Once thickened, stir in the Parmesan cheese, ancho chili powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
4
Cook the Corn
In a large skillet, add the fresh corn kernels and a splash of water. Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes until the corn is tender.
5
Combine and Serve
Pour the white sauce over the cooked corn and stir to combine. Garnish with chopped green onions and serve hot.
