Step by Step Method
Step 1
Put the corncob in a large steamer basket over a saucepan of simmering water and cover and cook for 4-5 minutes or until the corn is just tender (I would use my electrical tiered steamer).
Step 2
Put the ground coriander, cumin and chilli in a small non-stick frying pan and cook, stirring for 1 minute or until aromatic and then add the spread/margarine and garlic and cook stirring until the spread has melted.
Step 3
Remove the pan from the heat.
Step 4
Cut the corncob in half and add to the pan and brush with the spice mixture.
Step 5
Add coriander, then toss to coat corncob halves and then serve and enjoy.
Step 6
VARIATION - replace the fresh coriander with parsley or chives.
