GRILLED CORN WITH CHEESE, LIME AND CHILE (ELOTES)



Grilled Corn With Cheese, Lime and Chile (Elotes) image

Whole ears of corn are a classic street food in Mexico, where they are either grilled or boiled, then often dressed with some combination of lime, chile, mayonnaise and grated cheese. This grilled version calls for all of the above, which get mixed together into a creamy, bracing topping, and slathered all over the hot, sweet ears. It's not strictly traditional, but it does make it easier to assemble the corn and its dressing before serving. Or place the various topping in small bowls and let guests have the fun of garnishing their own. And if you don't have a grill, the broiler works too though watch the ears carefully so they don't burn.

CORN ON THE COB WITH CHEESE AND LIME



Corn on the Cob with Cheese and Lime image

Like Mexico's better-known culinary exports-guacamole, tacos, and tequila-Mexican-style corn (elote) is finding its place in restaurants, street carts, and home kitchens across North America. Given how available the ingredients are and how quickly it can be prepared, it's no wonder that it's a new favorite. Grilling lends an earthiness to the corn, but if grilling is not an option, boil it instead. It's worth seeking out cotija, a Mexican cow's-milk cheese, but in a pinch, Parmesan or feta will do.

Yield Makes 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 ears of corn in the husk
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/8 teaspoon cayenne, or to taste
3/4 cup shredded cotija or feta cheese
Lime wedges, for serving
Special equipment: Gas or charcoal grill

Steps:

  • Prepare the grill.
  • Soak the corn in the husk in cold water 10 minutes. Drain and grill on a rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals until husks are charred, about 10 minutes. Shuck the corn and grill until kernels are browned in spots, about 10 minutes.
  • While corn is grilling, in a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and cayenne. Using the small tear-dropshaped holes on a four-sided grater, grate the cheese.
  • Brush the mayonnaise mixture onto the hot corn and sprinkle with cheese.
  • Serve corn on the cob with lime wedges.
