Mexicali Spoon Bread Casserole

Ingredients

Heat the oven to 190ºC . Cook and stir the meat, onion, green pepper and garlic in a large skillet until the onion is tender and the meat is browned. Drain off the excess fat. Stir in the tomato sauce, UNDRAINED corn, 1.5 ts salt, the chili powder, pepper and olives. Heat to boiling then reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, while preparing the cornmeal topping. Mix the milk, cornmeal and half ts salt in a saucepan. Cook and stir over medium heat just until the mixture boils. Remove from the heat and stir in the cheese and eggs. Turn the hot meat mixture into an ungreased 2.5 to 3 litre casserole. Immediately pour the topping onto the meat mixture. Bake, uncovered, until a knife inserted in the topping comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Serve hot.
