INGREDIENTS
4 ears of corn, husked
2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper, to taste
4 tablespoons mayonnaise (I used vegan mayo)
1/3 cup sour cream or Mexican crema
1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning (optional, for an extra kick)
Fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
PREPARATION STEPS
Prepare the Corn:
Brush each ear of corn with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. If you want an extra kick, sprinkle Cajun seasoning evenly over the corn.
Grill the Corn:
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat
Place the corn on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the corn is tender and slightly charred on all sides.
Prepare the Topping:
In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and sour cream (or Mexican crema) until smooth and creamy.
Dress the Corn:
Once the corn is grilled to perfection, remove it from the grill. While still hot, brush or spread the mayonnaise mixture generously over each ear of corn.
