FOR THIS Mexican Street Corn, YOU’LL NEED THE Ingredients BELOW:
– 4 ears shucked corn.
– 110 grams.Of finely crumbled Cotija + more for serving.
– 1/4 Cup.Of mayonnaise.
– 1/4 Cup.Of sour cream.
– 1/4 Cup.Of finely chopped cilantro leaves and tender stems.
– 1/2 small spoon.Of ancho + more for serving.
– A finely minced garlic clove.
– A medium lime, I cut it into wedges.
PREPARATION METHOD:
– 1st Step: You need to prepare a chimney full of charcoal, and pour out and distribute the coals evenly over half of the coal grate after all of the charcoal has been ignited and coated with gray ash. If you have a gas grill, you may use half of the burners on a high heat instead. Place the cooking grate on the grill and close the lid for 5 minutes to enable the grill to warm. The grill grate should be cleaned and oiled.
– 2nd Step: In a large mixing bowl, while the coals are heating, add the cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream or crema, cilantro, chili powder, and garlic. Stir until the mixture is homogenous, then put it aside.
– 3rd Step: As soon as the grill is hot, put the corn directly over the hot side of the grill and cook, turning periodically, until the corn is cooked through and charred in places on both sides, approximately 8 minutes total.
– 4th Step: Using a big spoon, evenly cover both sides of the corn with the cheese mixture once it has been transferred to a large mixing bowl. Remove from oven and top with more cheese and chili powder before serving immediately with lime wedges.
