SMOKY GRILLED CORN ON THE COB

Smoky Grilled Corn on the Cob is a simple yet flavourful side dish, perfect for summer barbecues and outdoor gatherings. The sweet, juicy corn is grilled until slightly charred, then brushed with a smoky paprika, lime, and olive oil mixture that adds a tangy and slightly spicy kick. The grilling process enhances the natural sweetness of the corn while giving it a smoky depth. It’s a crowd-pleaser that pairs beautifully with grilled meat salads or can be enjoyed as a healthy and delicious snack.

COOKING TIME

TIPS

  • Char Depth: For a deeper smoky flavour, leave the corn on the grill a little longer, rotating it frequently to prevent burning.
  • Lime Juice Balance: Adjust the amount of lime juice according to your preference for tanginess.
  • Customise Seasoning: Feel free to add spices like cayenne pepper for heat or herbs like cilantro for freshness.

VARIATIONS

  • Cheesy Corn: Sprinkle freshly grated Parmesan or crumbled feta on the corn after grilling for added richness.
  • Spicy Kick: Add a pinch of cayenne or red pepper flakes to the paprika mixture for a fiery version.
  • Herb Infusion: Mix in fresh chopped cilantro or parsley with the olive oil before brushing onto the corn for a herbal touch.
  • Mexican-Style: Top the grilled corn with sour cream, cotija cheese, and chilli powder for a delicious Mexican street corn variation.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Fridge Storage: Store grilled corn in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Freezing: You can freeze the grilled corn by wrapping it tightly in foil or plastic wrap and storing it in a freezer-safe bag for up to 2 months.
  • Reheating: Reheat the corn on the grill or in an oven at 180°C (350°F) for 5-7 minutes to restore warmth and texture.
