I love to barbecue corn. It adds a smoky flavour with a slightly crunchy texture.
Try it with this fragrant butter. It will be your new best friend.
Serves 4
4 corn cobs, husks removed
1 lime
150g butter
1 cup roughly chopped coriander
4 spring onions, finely sliced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Oil for coating corn
Barbecued sweetcorn with coriander butter
Rub oil over the corn, and place on to a hot barbecue, or heat a large heavy frying pan and cook the corn directly on that.
Meanwhile, place butter in a small pan on the heat until it turns a nut brown. Stir in the coriander add a little lime zest and juice from half the lime. Remove from the heat and add the spring onions. Keep warm.
Spoon over the cooked corn and season generously with sea salt flakes and freshly cracked black pepper.
The Otago Farmers Market mobile kitchen is being renovated so Alison Lambert will not be demonstrating this weekend. However, Al Brown will be filming a new television show and demonstrating cooking with local produce there this Saturday.
