Grilled Corn on the Cob with a Trio of Flavoured Butters

This grilled corn on the cob recipe is a vibrant vegetarian side dish that brings a touch of gourmet flair to any summer barbecue or midweek meal. By grilling the corn inside its natural husk, the kernels steam to perfection while taking on a delicate smoky flavour from the charred exterior. It is an effortlessly impressive way to serve a seasonal favourite, offering a satisfying crunch and natural sweetness that pairs beautifully with a variety of savoury toppings.

To elevate the dish, we have included three distinct flavoured butter recipes: a punchy spicy chilli blend, an aromatic Mediterranean sun-dried tomato and herb mix, and a luxurious garlic and truffle oil version. These homemade compound butters can be prepared well in advance, making this a stress-free option for entertaining guests or simply adding a burst of rich, complex flavour to a healthy vegetable dish.

How to make Grilled Corn on the Cob with a Trio of Flavoured Butters

Heat an outdoor grill or a stovetop grill to high. Peel back husks of corn, but do not remove. Remove all silk from corn and coat corn with cooking spray. Sprinkle corn with salt and smooth husks back into place. Rub each husk with water and place directly on grill. Grill, turning occasionally, until kernels soften and husks blacken, 10 to 12 minutes. Pull back husks and serve corn with 1 teaspoon flavoured butter.

Using a spoon, mix butter with respective ingredients. Roll each into a log shape and wrap in plastic wrap or wax paper. Refrigerate until firm, 2 to 3 hours, then soften to room temperature before serving.
