Servings 12 servings

Ingredients

  1. 12 cobs corn
  2. For southern-spiced butter:
  3. 1/4 cup soft butter
  4. Pinch cayenne pepper, cumin, chili powder and sugar
  5. 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro
  6. For curry butter:
  7. 1/4 cup soft butter
  8. 1 tsp. curry powder and juice of a lime
  9. For herb and garlic butter:
  10. 1/4 cup soft butter
  11. 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh herbs such dill, parsley or chives
  12. 2 finely crushed garlic cloves
  1. Fresh cracked pepper to taste

Method

Remove a few of the outer leaves of the corn, leaving a thin protective shell. Pull back remaining outer leaves from the cob, being careful that they remain attached. Remove the silk then place the outer leaves back into their original position. (It's ok if some of the corn is unprotected). Soak corn in cold water 10 minutes. Whip butter ingredients together and reserve. Preheat barbecue to medium heat. Grill the corn with the lid closed for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally. Serve corn with butter alongside.
