Serves 8
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes

8 whole sweetcorn on the cob
90ml good quality mayonnaise
1 clove garlic, crushed
2,5ml cayenne pepper
250ml crumbled feta cheese
2 limes

1 Pull some of the corn husks off and reserve them to use for the chicken starter.

Preboil the corn for 10 minutes. Remove from the saucepan and drain well, then cook on a grill on the braai or use a griddle pan and cook for about 10 minutes, turning every few minutes.

2 Mix the mayonnaise, garlic, cayenne pepper and a generous pinch of salt together. Once the corn is done, spread with the mayonnaise mixture and sprinkle with the cheese. Drizzle with fresh lime juice.

Serve hot as an accompaniment or as a starter.
