Ingredients
| 250g corn | |
| 2 tbsp butter | |
| 2 tbsp crème fraîche | |
| 200ml water | |
| ½ lime | |
| 2 tsp miso | |
| 4 blocks udon noodles | |
| 60g parmesan | |
| finely sliced spring onions | |
| chili crisp | |
| salt and pepper |
Steps
|
1
|
Prepare the corn by cutting kernels from the cob or measuring out frozen kernels. Add the 250g corn, 2 tablespoons butter, 2 tablespoons crème fraîche, and 200ml water to the Panasonic Blender & Soup Maker. Turn the dial to Pasta Sauce, press start twice, and let the program run until the corn is soft and the sauce is creamy. |

When the program is nearly finished, open the lid and add the juice of ½ lime and 2 teaspoons miso, blend briefly until combined. Remove the lid, then taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper. For a finer texture, optionally pass the sauce through a sieve. |

While the sauce cooks, bring a large pot of salted water to the boil. Cook the 4 blocks udon noodles until very al dente as per the package instruction, then reserve 250ml of the starchy noodle water before draining. |

|
Place a frying pan over medium heat and pour in the corn sauce. Add a ladle or so of the noodle water until the sauce is the consistency of double cream. Check the seasoning. Add the drained udon and toss with tongs until well coated. Remove from the heat and stir in the 60g parmesan, mixing vigorously to emulsify. Do not add the cheese over direct heat, as it may seize and turn stringy. |

|
Divide the noodles between bowls and top with finely sliced spring onions and a drizzle of chili crisp. Add extra sauce to each portion if desired. Note: Parmesan should always be added off the heat for best texture. Substitute pecorino or Grana Padano if preferred. To keep it vegetarian, opt for a vegetarian-friendly parmesan style hard cheese. |
