Step 1
Blend corn kernels, milk, egg, and sugar until smooth; the batter should be thick and pourable.
Step 2
Stir corn flour and 1/4 tsp salt into the batter until no lumps remain.
Step 3
Heat 2 tbsp neutral oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, ~90 seconds.
Step 4
Pour 1/3 cup batter into the skillet; cook 2-3 minutes until the bottom is golden and edges look set.
Step 5
Add a small handful of cheese to the center, fold the pancake in half, and press gently until cheese melts, ~1 minute.
Step 6
Slide onto a plate and serve hot with a spoonful of sour cream and fresh cilantro or parsley.
