This vibrant corn on the cob with lime-chive butter is a quintessential summer side dish that brings a burst of freshness to any table. The sweetness of the golden kernels is perfectly balanced by the zesty lime and the subtle, onion-like notes of fresh chives. A touch of Hungarian paprika and a hint of cayenne pepper add a gentle warmth, elevating this simple vegetable into something truly special and flavourful.
A versatile addition to your vegetarian repertoire, this dish can be prepared either on the grill for a smoky, charred finish or boiled for a classic, juicy texture. It is an ideal accompaniment to barbecue favourites, halloumi skewers, or a fresh seasonal salad. The flavoured butter can even be prepared a few days in advance, making it a stress-free option for hosting friends and family outdoors.
