Here's how to make sweetcorn ribs. Jump on the latest trend for sweetcorn ribs, I serve mind with a salty sweet miso butter
Ingredients
  • 4 corn on the cob, husk removed (if present)
  • Olive oil
  • sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted room temperature butter
  • 1 tablespoon brown miso paste
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • Handful parsley, finely chopped
Instructions
  1. Pre-heat the oven to 180C (fan).
  2. Stand the corn up on its end, and using a sharp knife split it down the middle into two pieces. Then split each of the halves into a further 2 pieces, so that you have 4 'ribs'.
  3. Place the ribs on a baking tray and drizzle over olive oil and a pinch of sea salt.
  4. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, make the miso butter, by smooshing together the butter, miso paste and honey - either in a bowl or using a pestle and mortar.
  6. After 20 minutes when the sweetcorn is lightly browned and curled up, brush the miso butter over the corn side of the 'ribs'. Transfer to a serving dish and scatter over the parsley.
Notes
Miso butter is just one idea, a chilli lime butter, or anything with spices like chipotle or smoked paprika would also be fantastic.
