Coconut Milk-Basted Corn on the Cob image

Coconut and brown sugar add unexpected, yet super delicious flavor to corn on the cob.

Provided by Deborah Wagman

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
0.25 cup packed brown sugar
0.75 teaspoon salt
6 ears fresh corn on the cob with husks
Flaked coconut, toasted (optional)

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan combine coconut milk, brown sugar, and salt. Cook mixture over medium-low heat just until it simmers, stirring until sugar dissolves (about 12 minutes). Remove mixture from heat. Cool to room temperature.
  • To prepare corn, pull back husks from the cobs, leaving husks attached. Remove silks. With husks pulled back, use kitchen scissors to trim off about 2 inches of the husks (so each ear of corn looks like it's wearing a skirt). (Or tie back with 100% cotton kitchen string.)
  • For a charcoal grill, arrange medium-hot coals around a drip pan. Test for medium heat above the pan. Place corn on grill rack over drip pan. Brush with some of the coconut milk mixture. Cover and grill for 30 to 35 minutes or until corn is tender, turning and brushing with coconut milk mixture every 10 minutes. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Adjust heat for indirect cooking. Place corn on grill rack over unlit burner. Grill and brush as above.)
  • Serve corn drizzled with the remaining coconut milk mixture. If desired, sprinkle with toasted coconut.

I like to eat corn all year long, so I came up with this recipe. It's my favorite side to serve when I make sloppy joes. You can use a butter substitute for a skinny version of this corn. -Teresa Flowers, Sacramento, California

CORN ON THE COB COOKED IN COCONUT MILK



Corn on the Cob Cooked in Coconut Milk image

A really simple side dish which originates from the Caribbean. My Guyanese husband introduced it to me whilst we were visiting Guyana and this is my adaptation of it. It has become a firm favourite. It's a good recipe to experiment with, changing quantities and types of herbs and spices. Low fat coconut milk can be subsituted for the full fat.

CORN ON THE COB WITH COCONUT AND LIME



Corn on the Cob With Coconut and Lime image

Anyone avoiding dairy might notice that corn on the cob served at cookouts usually comes slathered with butter. This vegan alternative uses coconut oil to add richness, lime juice for a little acid, and finely chopped, toasted coconut chips for added texture. Mixing half of the chips into the oil helps them stick to the cob, which is smart because you'll want them in every bite. If you can't find coconut chips, toasted unsweetened coconut flakes will add a nutty flavor, but you won't get the delightful crunch.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 ears fresh corn, shucked
1 lime
4 tablespoons coconut oil
1/2 cup toasted unsweetened large coconut chips, finely chopped (or 3 tablespoons toasted unsweetened coconut flakes)
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Heat your grill to medium-high. Grill corn, turning occasionally, until cooked through and lightly charred, 10 to 12 minutes. (Alternatively, add corn to a large pot of salted boiling water and cook for 5 to 7 minutes.)
  • Meanwhile, zest the lime. Set aside the zest then cut the lime in half. Cut one half into four wedges and squeeze the remaining half into a small bowl. Stir the coconut oil and half the chopped coconut chips into the lime juice.
  • Slather hot corn with coconut oil mixture and season with salt. Sprinkle with lime zest and remaining coconut chips. Serve with lime wedges alongside for squeezing.
