Serves 4
Preparation time 15 minutes
Cooking time 5 minutes
Ingredients
- 50ml olive oil
- 2 shallots, finely chopped
- 100g Asda feta, crumbled
- Juice of half a lemon
- 1tbsp chopped fresh mint or flat-leaf parsley
- 4 ears corn on the cob with husk
Method
1 Set aside 1 tablespoon of oil; mix the rest with the shallots, feta and lemon juice. Stir in the chopped herbs, cover and chill until you’re ready to eat.
2 Peel back the husk of each corn on the cob and bunch it together at the base, tying with string – you can then use it as a handle to turn the corn over on the barbecue.
3 Brush the corn with a little of the remaining olive oil and cook over medium-hot coals for about 5 minutes, using the direct method. Turn frequently, until cobs are lightly charred. Leave the husk attached so it can be used as a handle when you eat the corn. Serve immediately with the feta dressing spooned over.
