Cheesy corn cobs

• corn cobs↗4
• butter↗30g g

  melted

• parmesan↗30g g

  (or vegetarian alternative), finely grated

Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Fill a large pot with salted water and bring to a boil. Add the corn cobs and boil for 5 minutes until slightly tender, then drain. They can be prepared a day ahead – place the corn in a baking dish, cover and refrigerate until use.

2. 2

   Season the corn, place it on a hot grill and cook for 5 minutes, turning regularly until it begins to puff and some kernels puff up and char in places. Alternatively, heat a grill pan over high heat and grill the corn 4‑5 minutes per side for a similar effect.

3. 3

   Brush all sides with melted butter, then sprinkle with parmesan and a little black pepper.
