grilled corn recipe

Elote is classic Mexican street corn, grilled and slathered in a irresistible sauce. This recipe has an added bonus: built-in handles for easy eating!

Elote (Mexican Street Corn)

corn

neutral oil

sour cream

mayonnaise

feta cheese, cotija cheese, or queso fresco

chili powder

garlic powder

cumin

salt

Lime wedges,

Cilantro,

Shuck the corn by peeling down the outside layers one at a time and keeping them attached, facing downwards away from the cob. When you&#8217;ve finished, use kitchen twine or string to tie the leaves together (see the photos).

Use your hands to rub oil on each corn cob evenly, then place them on a baking sheet.

In a small bowl, mix the sour cream, mayonnaise, feta or queso fresco (crumbling any large chunks into smaller chunks with your fingers), chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, and kosher salt in small bowl.

Place the corn on the grill and cook until it begins to blacken, then turn. Cook about 12 to 15 minutes total, until blackened on all sides.

Place the corn back on the baking sheet and use a spoon to coat it with cheese mixture. Garnish with a squeeze of lime and torn cilantro leaves. Serve immediately, using the tied husks as a handle for easy eating.
