Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Mexican Street Corn.
Step 1
Start by filling a large pot with water and bringing it to a rolling boil.
Step 2
Once the water is bubbling, gently add the corn on the cob, then lower the heat to a gentle simmer.
Step 3
Let the corn cook for about 20 to 25 minutes, or until it’s perfectly tender and bursting with flavor.
Step 4
When the corn is ready, use tongs to carefully lift an ear from the pot, letting any excess water drip off.
Step 5
Now, it’s time to add some delicious toppings! Spread about a tablespoon of creamy mayonnaise evenly over the warm kernels, allowing it to melt slightly into the corn.
Step 6
Next, drizzle approximately a tablespoon of margarine in a fun zig-zag pattern, turning the ear as you go to ensure every bite is flavorful.
Step 7
For the finishing touch, generously sprinkle grated Parmesan cheese over the corn, followed by a light dusting of chili powder for a little kick.
Step 8
Repeat this delightful process with the remaining ears of corn, and serve them up immediately for a fresh, mouthwatering treat that’s sure to impress! Enjoy the sweet, buttery goodness of your perfectly cooked corn on the cob!.
