Ingredients
- 1. One egg
- 2. Two cups of frozen corn
- 3. A tablespoon of vegetable oil
- 4. Three-fourth cup of chopped onion
- 5. Two cups of milk
- 6. A quarter cup of cornstarch
- 7. A quarter cup of butter
- 8. One teaspoon of ground nutmeg
- 9. Half a teaspoon of salt
- 10. Half a teaspoon of ground black pepper
- 11. One nine-inch unbaked pie crust
- 12. An egg, beaten
Step 1
Begin by preheating the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) to get it nice and hot for your delicious pie creation.
Step 2
Next, gently place an egg into a saucepan and cover it with water, making sure the water level is about an inch above the egg. Cover the saucepan and bring the water to a gentle boil. Once the water is bubbling away, remove the saucepan from the heat and let the egg soak in the warmth for 15 minutes. After that, carefully pour out the hot water and cool the egg under a refreshing stream of cold running water in the sink before peeling and chopping it up.
Step 3
While the egg is cooling, get another saucepan ready by bringing some water to a boil. Toss in the corn and let it cook for 2 minutes before straining it and setting it aside to cool.
Step 4
In a separate saucepan, heat up some vegetable oil over medium heat. Add in the onion and sauté until it becomes soft and translucent, which should take around 5 minutes. Pour in the milk and whisk in the cornstarch, followed by the butter, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Let the mixture come to a gentle simmer while whisking constantly, then allow it to cook for an additional 2 minutes until the sauce thickens. Finally, fold in the chopped hard-boiled egg and cooked corn before pouring the savory mixture into the awaiting pie crust.
Step 5
To add a beautiful finishing touch, brush the crust with beaten egg before popping the pie into the preheated oven. Bake it until both the crust and filling turn a lovely golden brown, which usually takes about 25 minutes. Enjoy the delightful aroma that fills your kitchen as your pie bakes to perfection!
