This recipe is really quite good, although time consuming when using the steaming process the recipe calls for. Like another poster said - I used all masa harina instead of adding cornmeal and it turned out very smooth. My local grocery store only had "instant corn flour" (masa harina instant) and it still worked out.

Great recipe! I actually baked this in the oven instead of on the stovetop. I placed my dish inside a larger dish filled with hot water and put foil tightly over the top. Bake at 250 for 2 hours. YUM!

These came out awesome - just like Chevy's. It was very hard to find the masa harina - finally found it in a Mexican grocery store in Coney Island.. I baked in the oven in a water bath at 350.. only problem was I used the corning casserole dish with glass top and I dont think the top was tight enough..next time i'll wrap it tightly in foil. it was a little drier than expected and I think that is why, because the steam was escaping. These were soooooo good though.. next time I'll use a little less whole corn, just my preference though. Thanks for this great recipe!!

Very good but next time I think I'll stick to butter (I used I Can't Believe It's Not Butter and that was all I could taste!) and the cornmeal seemed to make it a little too gritty for me. I think I'll just all masa harina and see how that works out.

Very Good! I wasn't sure about the steaming part, and I did it for the time allotted, but it was too soupy. I put it in the oven for a few extra minutes and it turned out fine.

I was very disappointed in how this turned out. I followed the recipe exactly, yet it took waaay longer to cook then what the recipe states. I thought it tasted too gritty and the flavor just wasn't there. It wasn't gross but definitely not something I'll make again.

very good. I used polenta instead of the cornmeal because I was out of it, and sour cream for the milk. Everyone loved it. You don't need much because it is sweet and tasty. I used the microwave version, but I would like to try it in a rice cooker.

love love love it! i made this recipe twice...once in the microwave and once steamed. the steamed recipe came out much better...if you can, take the time to steam this. the texture is so much smoother than when you microwave it. i would not change a thing! thanks for a great recipe!!!

I didn't give this five stars because it's a little weird to make. It turned out good though, tasted like the stuff you get from Chevy's and that's what we wanted!

Who hoo! I've been looking for this recipes for years!! It is exactly how I remember at Mex restaurants and I am sooo happy about that. I used a can of sweet corn and used the cans water and it came out great. I like it very corny and sweet. The microwave trick worked just fine. Yum!!!! Thank you so much.

I've never made anything like this before and was so impressed with how it turned out! Also, my 15 month old LOVED it! While the steaming method looks intimidating (at least it did to me!) I went with that since it was my first time with the recipe. It actually wasn't difficult at all - I used a glass pie dish instead of an 8x8 to fit into my largest frying pan to steam. Love this recipe - it will be a regular side to my chicken enchiladas now!

I made this using 20% frozen corn and 80% grilled sweet corn and cooked it in a microwave. It came out delicious. Will make again.
