- 4 ears of Fresh Corn
- ¼ cup Mayo I used Kraft Mayo with olive oil
- 3 Tbsp. plain yogurt I used homemade
- ¼ tsp. ground cumin
- 1 cup grated cotija cheese
- ½ tsp. chili powder or cayenne powder for added heat
- 1 lime cut in 6 wedges
- 2 tablespoon of chopped fresh cilantro
Preheat grill over medium heat. Carefully pull down husks and remove silks. Replace most of the husks and grill 5 minutes per side, or until kernels are charred.If you have gas stove you can grill it using stove top
In a small mixing bowl, combine mayo, yogurt and cumin and set aside.
Once cooked, brush each ear with mayo mixture and roll in cheese; give a sprinkle of chili powder to taste. Add chopped coriander leaves over the corn.
Squeeze lime over the corn just before eating.
