Step by Step guide
Step 1
Using a sharp knife, cut the kernels off the corn ears and transfer them to a bowl.
Step 2
Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the rice and stir to coat it completely with the butter.
Step 3
Pour in 2 cups of water and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat, cover, and cook for 18–20 minutes until the rice is tender. Remove from heat and fluff with a fork.
Step 4
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, melt the remaining butter over medium heat. Add the corn kernels, finely chopped shallots, and a pinch of sugar. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, for about 5 minutes until the corn and shallots are tender. Remove from heat.
Step 5
In the skillet with the corn, add the rice and finely chopped mint. Stir, season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
