Notes

Variation
If you’d prefer to use fresh corn, cook a single corn on the cob in boiling water for 10 minutes or until cooked. Cut kernels from the cob and either puree with a dash of milk, or for a lumpier version crush corn with a fork.
Variation
You can replace the corn with mashed pumpkin for another flavour, if you prefer.
