Barbecued Corn
Enjoy flavour without the fuss at your next summer barbecue with this perfectly grilled corn.
Ingredients
- 1 bunch chives, finely chopped
- 100g butter, softened
- 1 lemon, rind finely grated and 1 tbs juice
- 1 Tbsp horseradish cream
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 4 corn cobs, with husks
- 1 cup finely grated parmesan
Method
- Reserve 1 Tbsp chives to garnish. Combine butter, lemon rind, lemon juice, horseradish cream, sauce and remaining chives in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- Place corn on a microwave-safe plate and microwave on high for 2 minutes or until husks have softened. Set aside for 5 minutes to cool.
- Peel back husks, keeping them attached at the base. Remove and discard silk. Replace husks over corn and tie at the top with kitchen twine.
- Preheat barbecue grill on medium-high. Cook corn, turning often, for 5-8 minutes or until charred. Peel back husks and retie. Place on a platter and spread with butter. Sprinkle with parmesan and reserved chives.
Handy Tips
Cooking corn in the husk adds a wonderful smoky flavour. Trimmed corn can also be used in this recipe – wrap in foil instead.
