Esquites is a delicious corn snack traditional from Mexico but not in all places you can find the ingredients to make it so tasty as it is..like the epazote or poblano Chilli.but.. If you want to try it...this is a delicious option... you will Love it... :)))

Ingredients:
4-6 Corn.
2 Tbsp. Butter.
1/4 of Onion.
1 Poblano or green Chilli (I use a small green and red bell pepper)
Epazote leaves (I use Chives springs).

For prepare:Cream or mayonnaise.
Chilli powder and sauce.
Lemon.

How to prepare:
1. In a pot add bit of oil and then butter... This is to prevent butter burn.
2.Add the onion chopped in cubes or into julienne as you prefer. In my case I chopped into cubes. Then fry some minutes.
3.Add Poblano or green chilli in stripes. In my case I use Green bell pepper and red bell pepper as you can see on the video. This is a great option that give a really good flavor to the esquites.. you can do in case you didnt find the chilli.
4. After fry for some minutes add the corn kernel and mix all ingredients.. you will start to smell the delicious corn mixed with the butter and peppers.
5. Add water covering the corn kernels. dont put too much... just to boil the corn.
6. When start boil add 1 teaspoon of salt and pepper to taste.
7.Add the springs of Epazote (Just in case you have it) it not.. like me.. you can substitute using spring chives finely chopped.
8. Let until boil and if require add a bit more of water.

Enjoy your delicious corn snack...😊
