- 2 tablespoons coriander (chopped fresh)
How to Make
-
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.
