This creamy corn with chives is a sophisticated alternative to shop-bought tinned varieties, celebrating the natural sweetness of fresh corn. By puréeing a portion of the kernels and straining them, you create a silky, golden sauce that coats the remaining whole pieces perfectly. It is a vibrant vegetarian side dish that brings a touch of seasonal freshness to your dinner table, providing a lovely textural contrast between the popping kernels and the smooth, buttery base.
Ideal for serving alongside roasted meats or as part of a Sunday lunch, this recipe is naturally gluten-free and relies on simple, wholesome ingredients. The addition of fresh chives provides a mild onion note that balances the richness of the butter. If you prefer a lighter consistency, the sauce is easily thinned with a splash of water, making it a versatile addition to your repertoire of vegetable sides.

Ingredients for Creamy Corn with Chives
4 ears corn, shucked
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 teaspoons cornflour
Pinch of sugar (optional)
50g finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/3 cup water
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives
How to make Creamy Corn with Chives
Working over a shallow bowl, cut off corn kernels, then scrape each cob with a knife to extract juice. Discard cobs.
Purée 475ml kernels, reserving remainder, and all of juice in a food processor 2 minutes, scraping down sides. Force through a fine sieve into a bowl and discard solids. Stir in salt, cornflour, and sugar.
Cook onion in butter in a saucepan over moderately low heat, stirring frequently, until softened. Add reserved kernels and water and simmer briskly, covered, stirring occasionally, until corn is crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
Stir corn purée again, then stir into kernels. Bring to a boil, stirring, and simmer, stirring, until thickened, about 2 minutes. (If desired, thin with water.) Season with pepper and stir in chives.
