Steps:

• To prep the corn: Fold the husk of each corn back leaf by leaf and tie them with kitchen twine. Lightly brush corn on the cub with oil.
• Heat a grill pan or an outdoor grill. Grill corn, turning occasionally until it is browned in spots. Keep an eye on it as this happens rather quickly.
• To make the sauce: Mix together mayonnaise, sour cream, chile powder, and lime juice in a bowl.
• Brush each grilled corn the mayo mixture and sprinkle with cotija cheese. Garnish with cilantro and serve.
• To prep the corn: Cut the corn off the cob. I used 6 ears to get about 4 1/2 cups. Alternatively, you can also use canned corn or frozen corn. If using frozen, you do not need to thaw it out.
• Sauté corn: Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the corn, and stirring frequently, sauté for 5-7 minutes until it starts to char. If you are using frozen corn, you might need to cook a few minutes longer. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Make the sauce: Mix together mayonnaise, sour cream, chile powder, and lime juice in a bowl.
• Assemble: Add in the mayo mixture into the sauteed corn. Give it a mix. Stir in the cotija cheese and sprinkle with cilantro. Serve in small bowls with wedges of lime on the side.

MEXICAN CORN ON THE COB

Steps:

• Fill a large saucepan or pot with water and add the 2 teaspoons of salt. Mix and turn heat to medium-high. Just make sure it is big enough for all your corn to fit properly. My pot only fits 3.
• Cut the ends of the corn and remove some of the outer husks, leave the rest of the husk on the corn, the husk gives them some extra flavor, and this is the way they are cooked in Mexico.
• Once the water is boiling, place the corn in the pot to cook.
• Lower the heat to medium and cover the pot with the lid. After 5 minutes (see notes above) check the corn for doneness. If they are tender remove from pot and pull out the husks the hot corn, carefully.
• To serve, spread cream and mayo, or mix them before spreading, add a few drops of lime juice, sprinkle with cheese, chili powder and salt to taste. Enjoy!
