This Desi Corn recipe transforms simple corn on the cob with Indian-inspired flavours. The corn is first boiled until nearly cooked, then coated in a mixture of melted butter, salt, and cayenne pepper. It is wrapped in foil and baked or grilled for about 5 minutes. Finally, it is unwrapped, brushed with lime juice, sprinkled with paprika, and grilled again until the kernels turn a lovely golden colour. A quick and tasty vegetable side dish.
