Parmesan-dusted mielies

By Abigail Donnelly

Serves 6

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 10 minutes

Cooking Time 15 minutes

Ingredients

4 corn cobs
100 g butter, melted
1 red chilli, chopped
1 lemon, juiced (about 3 Tablespoons)
1 t fresh coriander, chopped
1 t sea salt
50 g Parmesan cheese, finely grated

Method

Boil the mielies in salted water until tender, then braai until charred.

Mix the butter, chilli, lemon juice, coriander and salt.

Place the mielies in a dish, pour over the butter and sprinkle with Parmesan.

Cook's note: you can also wrap the mielies individually in clingwrap, and microwave them each, one by one, on high for 3 minutes.

If you don't have coriander, parsley will do just fine.
