Pakistani Style Corn on the Cob
Corn is our family's absolute favourite vegetable to eat, in any shape or form. I remember it being sold as a street food in Pakistan. A man strolling the street with a small cart, on it a makeshift stove for grilling up the corn. After it was cooked up, it was smeared with red chilli powder with the help of half a lemon or a lime.
I have tried to recreate this recipe at home, grilling the corn on a grill pan, as I do not have a proper grill for now. If you have BBQ grill, you can use that to grill the corn. It is a very easy and delicious recipe, a little different from the usual corn on the cob.

Once the corn is done, take half the lemon/lime whichever you are using, dip it in the chili powder mix and rub it all over the corn, squeezing the lemon a little so the juice comes out. |
