Corn on the Cob-style grilled sweetcorn

Ingredients

Corn

• 4 sweetcorn cobs, husks removed and silk discarded
• 1 tbsp olive oil

Peri-peri butter

• 50 g butter, softened
• 1 tbsp peri-peri sauce
• 1 garlic clove, minced
• 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
• 1 tsp lime juice

Method

1. Butter. Mash all butter ingredients together. Set aside.
2. Grill. Heat a grill pan or barbecue to medium-high. Brush corn with olive oil.
3. Cook. Grill corn, turning occasionally, for 12–15 minutes until kernels are tender and charred in spots.
4. Butter. Brush generously with the peri-peri butter. Serve hot.

Tips

• Butter + peri-peri + lime juice. That’s the combo.
• Grill on a plancha or griddle pan. Charred kernels are everything.
• Don’t boil the corn first. Grill from raw — the char is the point.
