How to Make Baked Palak Spinach And Corn

1. Preheat oven to 160°C (325°F).
2. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add 1 teaspoon of cumin seeds and sauté until they begin to splutter.
3. Add 1 medium onion (finely chopped) and stir-fry over medium-high heat until softened and coated in oil (about 5 minutes).
4. Add 1 (15 ounce) can of corn (drained) and 1 (10 ounce) package of frozen spinach (thawed and squeezed dry). Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes to combine.
5. Add 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and stir-fry for 1 minute until lightly browned. Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup of milk, stirring continuously until a smooth sauce forms.
6. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Transfer the mixture to an oven-safe baking dish.
7. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of grated cheddar cheese (or your preferred cheese) over the top.
8. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until heated through and bubbly.
9. Optional: Omit spinach and increase corn to two 15-ounce cans for a richer corn bake.
