Salsa
- 1 medium mango, peeled and chopped
- 1/2 cup salsa
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
- 1 green onion, finely chopped
Corn Cakes
- 4 Eggland's Best Eggs (large)
- 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup cornmeal
- 4 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- 1 can (8-1/4 ounces) cream-style corn
- 1/2 cup 2% milk
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1 cup fresh or frozen corn, thawed
- 4 green onions, chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
Poached Eggs

Preparation
In a small bowl, combine the mango, salsa, cilantro and onion; set aside.
Separate two eggs.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt and pepper.
In another bowl, whisk the remaining eggs, egg yolks, cream-style corn, milk and butter.
Stir into dry ingredients just until blended.
Fold in corn and onions.
In a small bowl, beat egg whites and cream of tartar until stiff peaks form. Fold into batter.
Pour batter by 1/4 cupfuls onto a greased hot griddle. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
Meanwhile, place 2-3 in. of water in a large skillet with high sides; add vinegar.
Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer gently.
Break cold eggs, one at a time, into a custard cup or saucer; holding the cup close to the surface of the water, slip each egg into water.
Cook, uncovered, until whites are completely set and yolks are still soft, about 4 minutes.
With a slotted spoon, lift eggs out of water. Serve with corn cakes and salsa.
