This divine recipe is from The Square Table Cookbook from Oxford, Mississippi. Cheese grits are great but to kick it up a notch try these with the salty, tangy Stilton and the heat and great flavor of jalapeno. Serve with fried turkey or catfish to complete the Southern, down-home theme for supper or serve with ham and biscuits for brunch! Ingredients:
1 1/2 quarts water |
4 tablespoons unsalted butter |
1 cup red onion, diced |
1/4 cup garlic, minced |
1 cup heavy cream |
1 yellow bell pepper, seeded and diced |
2 jalapenos, seeded and diced |
1 1/2 teaspoons salt |
3 cups quick-cooking grits |
8 eggs, beaten |
1 lb stilton cheese, crumbled |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degree. 2. In a stockpot over high heat bring water, butter, onion, garlic, cream, peppers,and salt to a simmer. 3. Slowly add the grits, stirring constantly until they are soft and creamy, about 3 minutes. 4. Set aside to cool. 5. In a large mixing bowl, whisk eggs and cheese. 6. Stir into grits. 7. Grease a 12x12-inch casserole dish and dust with flour. 8. Pour in grits and bake until firm, 40-45 minutes. |
