Ingredients:

Serving

2 tsp vegetable oil
1 cup chopped shallots
3/4 tsp dried thyme
2 1/2 cups frozen yellow corn kernels, thawed
5 cups (or more) water
1 tsp salt
1 cup quick-cooking grits
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1/2 tsp hot pepper sauce

Directions:

Heat vegetable oil in medium nonstick skillet over medium-low heat. Add chopped shallots and dried thyme and sauté until shallots are tender and golden, about 6 minutes. Add 1 1/2 cups thawed yellow corn and sauté 3 minutes. Remove from heat. Purée remaining 1 cup corn and 1/2 cup water in processor.
Bring 4 1/2 cups water and salt to boil in heavy large saucepan. Gradually whisk in grits. Reduce heat to medium and cook until grits boil and thicken, stirring occasionally, about 6 minutes. Add shallot mixture, puréed corn mixture, green onions and hot pepper sauce and stir until well blended and heated through, adding more water if mixture is too thick, about 4 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to bowl and serve.
