Smearing mayonnaise all over the cobs before wrapping and grilling them infuses Mexican flavours into the kernels.

Ingredients

  • 8 corn cobs
  • 1/2 cup light mayonnaise
  • 1 green onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp grated lime rind
  • 1 tbsp lime juice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1 cup shredded old cheddar cheese, (optional)

Preparation

Without tearing, carefully peel back corn husks; remove silks. Set aside.

In bowl, combine mayonnaise, onion, jalapeño pepper, garlic, lime rind and juice, salt and pepper; spread 1 tbsp (15 mL) over kernels of each cob. Pull up husks, smoothing over cob; tie each tightly at top with string. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 5 hours.)

Place corn on greased grill over medium-high heat; close lid and grill, turning frequently, until charred and beginning to smoke, about 25 minutes. To serve, pull back husks and sprinkle each cob with 2 tbsp (25 mL) cheese (if using).
