A summer staple! Grilled corn with an addictive peanut, coconut and chilli sauce.

SERVES 6

PREP: 10 minutes

COOK: 20 minutes

6 corn on the cob

2½ tbsp olive or neutral oil

1 tsp sea salt flakes

50g crunchy peanut butter

80ml coconut milk

30ml lime juice

1½ tbsp soy sauce

2½ cm fresh ginger, finely chopped or grated

1 fresh red chilli, finely chopped

10g fresh chives, finely chopped

  • In a large bowl, evenly coat the corn with the oil and sea salt flakes.
  • Mix together the peanut butter, coconut milk, lime juice, soy sauce, ginger, chilli and chives.
  • Once your barbecue is good and hot, cook the corn for 4-5 minutes on each side, turning as each side grills, until the whole cob is evenly charred to your liking.
  • Serve the grilled corn with the sauce alongside, and let people spoon the dressing over.
