Grilled Coriander Lime Corn Cob...


Forget plain or buttered... Give corn on the cob a new twist with Pakistani or Vietnamese-inspired flavours. These insanely aromatic savoury brush-on sauces will liven up your grilled summer favourite in no time!

Grilled Coriander Lime Corn Cob
Makes 8 corn on the cob

8 corn cobs with husks attached.

To prepare: Remove silk from ears of corn; rewrap ears in husks. Soak corn in husks in enough water to completely cover at least two hours. Preheat barbecue to high heat. Grill corn 20 minutes or until tender. Brush the corn with your choice of sauce during the last few minutes of grilling for optimum flavour without burning.

3 Tbsp. salted butter, melted
1 Tbsp. finely chopped coriander
1 green chili, finely chopped
1 lime, cut into wedges


1. Mix the first three ingredients together.
2. Serve cooked corn with a splash of lime.

Variation: Vietnamese

2 Tbsp. oil
2 Tbsp. fish sauce
1 Tbsp. sugar
3 green onions, white parts only, sliced
2 red chilies, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced

1. Heat oil, fish sauce and sugar in a pan for one minute until simmering.
2. Add onions, chilies and garlic and cook for 30 seconds.



So awesome... to share that my Grilled Coriander Lime Corn Cob recipe has been featured on the JOFR news for August's challenge to our ambassadors around the world. The activity was to share our al fresco dining experiences- our favourite moments, from huddled around a camp fire to picking our own fresh fruits and veggies and more...
