   Add a teaspoon of butter along with a splash of olive oil, letting them melt together in a warm embrace.

   Stir this vibrant mixture for about ten minutes, allowing the corn to become fragrant and take on a lovely golden hue.

   Next, introduce a couple of pressed garlic cloves to the pan, cooking for an additional thirty seconds until the aroma fills your kitchen with warmth and comfort.
