Mexican Street Corn Over the Campfire (serves 6)

Mexican Street Corn Over the Campfire

Ingredients:

Instructions:

  1. Husk the corn, but if you don’t have those handy little corn ends with you while you’re camping, leave the ends on the corn so you have something to grab them by. Grill the corn over the campfire until it starts to get slightly charred, turning every few minutes to avoid burning it.
  2. While the corn is cooking, mix the mayonnaise, sour cream and cilantro. Take the corn off the fire and generously slather it in the mayonnaise mixture. Let the ears cool for a few minutes, then sprinkle with lime juice, generously sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, and finish off with a bit of chili powder.
