Mini Corn on the Cob

This vibrant vegetarian side dish takes the simple pleasure of fresh corn and elevates it with a punchy combination of citrus and spice. By cutting the cobs into smaller sections, they become the perfect bite-sized addition to a summer barbecue or a colourful midweek meal. The sweetness of the corn pairs beautifully with the zingy lime juice and a subtle heat from the chilli powder, creating a well-balanced flavour profile that appeals to both adults and children.

These mini corn cobs are a fantastic way to bring a touch of Mexican-inspired flair to your dinner table. The addition of salty, grated Parmesan adds a rich savoury finish that clings to the spiced butter. Serve them alongside grilled halloumi or as part of a larger vegetarian spread for a fresh, homemade treat that is as nutritious as it is delicious.
