  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1      quart         water
   1      teaspoon      dried leaf oregano
     1/4  teaspoon      salt
     1/2  cup           whole-kernel corn -- * drained
   1      cup           yellow cornmeal
     1/2  teaspoon      hot pepper flakes -- crushed
     1/2  cup           tomato sauce
                        pepper to taste

In a heavy, 3-quart  saucepan, bring water and salt to a boil.  Slowly pour cornmeal into saucepan so that water does not stop boiling, stirring to keep smooth.  Reduce heat and simmer 20 to 25 minutes, stirring often until mixture is stiff.  Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat tomato sauce, oregano, corn, hot pepper flakes and pepper. When cornmeal is stiff, turn half into a serving dish and top with half the sauce.  Layer remaining cornmeal and sauce and let rest to 5 to 10 minutes.  Cut in squares and serve.
