Step 2

preheat oven to 350 degree oven. bring the water to a boil in a small saucepan. slowly pour in cornmeal, stirring constantly. reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring until thickened, 2 minutes. add sausage mixture, stir in corn kernels, salt and the remaining tablespoon butter, and combine well.
Step 3

Whisk together eggs and cream.stir in sausage mixture until combined well. pour into a buttered 2-quart deep pie plate. bake until set and top is golden brown, about 1 hour. serve hot
