Time 22m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 ears sweet corn
1 cup of unsweetened light coconut milk
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 -3 bay leaves
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
cilantro (garnish)

Steps:

  • Preheat grill to med-high heat. Oil if necessary.
  • On the stovetop, combine coconut milk, sugar, bay leaves, salt and pepper.
  • Simmer uncovered for 5-7 minutes, until sugar is dissolved.
  • Carefully peel back the corn husks and remove the silk from each ear of corn.
  • Using a long strand of husk, tie back the ends of the husks - this creates a handle with which to eat the corn.
  • Fold a piece of aluminum foil a few times to create a grill guard.
  • Place each piece of corn on the grill. The husks should sit on the foil so they don't burn.
  • Grill the corn, rotating every 2 minutes to ensure it's evenly browned.
  • Baste the corn with the coconut milk mixture, rotating every minute or so until each ear has been coated twice.
  • Remove corn from the grill, baste one more time and serve with cilantro garnish.

Tips:

  • Choose the right corn: Young, tender corn on the cob is best for grilling to ensure a sweet and juicy taste.
  • Prepare the corn properly: Remove the husks and silks from the corn, leaving the top layer of leaves attached to protect the kernels.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: Marinating the corn in a flavorful mixture of herbs, spices, and liquids adds extra flavor and keeps the corn moist during grilling.
  • Grill the corn over medium-high heat: This will help to char the corn slightly and give it a smoky flavor.
  • Rotate the corn frequently: Make sure to rotate the corn every few minutes to ensure even cooking and prevent burning.
  • Brush the corn with butter or oil: This will help to keep the corn moist and add a glossy sheen.
  • Serve the corn hot: Grilled corn is best served hot off the grill, topped with your favorite seasonings or sauces.
