Number Of Ingredients 10

4 large shallots, peeled
3 ounces peeled, shredded carrots ( 3/4 cup)
2 teaspoons butter
6 ears fresh corn
1 cup skim milk
Fresh thyme
6 large shiitake or other mushrooms
2 ounces sharp white cheddar cheese
1/2 cup vegetable or chicken stock
1/4 teaspoon salt, optional

  • Shuck corn and strip kernels from cob. Add to skillet with milk, and cook over high heat.
  • Wash, dry and chop thyme; add to skillet, and continue cooking until most of milk has evaporated.
  • Meanwhile, remove stems from shiitake mushrooms, and discard. Wash, dry and slice mushrooms into thin strips.
