    Street Corn Casserole FAQs

    Can I use fresh corn?

    I use frozen corn in this recipe, but you can use fresh corn off the cob if you prefer, or even drained canned corn. If you’re using fresh corn, grilled corn is the best for this recipe. Try grilling corn on the cob in foil.

    What cheese should I use?

    To make this recipe extra easy, I use Parmesan cheese, which is similar to Mexican cotija cheese. However, you can also use queso fresco.

    What to Serve with Elote Casserole

    Mexican corn casserole is one of the best side dishes for pairing with beef and pork dishes. It pairs well with everything from tacos and fajitas to carne picada and grilled steak.

    • Pork Butt on Grill
    • Short Ribs on the Grill
    • Chicken Birria Tacos
    • Espetada Madeira (Portuguese Style Skewers)
    • Carne Picada
    • Chicken Fajitas

    Made this tonight as another side option. And it was amazing!

      4 stars
      Cutting way back on the Chipotle ground pepper next time around. Except for needing a drink of tea after every bite, I’d give this 5 stars.

      This sounds delicious and I will definitely try it! But it should be titled Mexican inspired street corn. Mexican street corn as you said can be served on the cob or cup. But it is not baked, on the cob, you simply slather butter and mayo on it dredge in cojeta cheese, sprinkle cayenne pepper add red chili sauce and enjoy. Cup pretty much the same only you sort of layer the ingredients, spoon of mayo, buttered corn, cheese, chili sauce such as cholula,
