Sweet corn simmered in buttery, melted cheese with imitation crab meat. This easy Korean corn cheese recipe uses minimal ingredients and is ready in 10 minutes on the stovetop. A delicious vegetable side dish that's restaurant-quality, family-friendly, and budget-friendly!
Drain canned corn thoroughly using a fine mesh sieve to remove excess liquid. Transfer to a large mixing bowl and set aside.
Chop imitation crab meat into 1-inch pieces and set aside.
Melt butter in a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Add corn and stir until evenly coated.
Add mayonnaise, sugar, black pepper, and imitation crab meat. Mix well, breaking up the crab as you cook. Continue cooking until all liquid has evaporated, about 4-5 minutes.
Stir in half of the shredded cheese until evenly combined.
Reduce heat to low, then top with remaining cheese. Cover and let melt for 2-3 minutes. Serve and enjoy.
