Corn on the cob















Corn on the cob or simply mealies as we refer to them here in the mother city, is a perfect example of street food that you might find on the streets of cape town or on the taxi deck. I consider it to be such a delicacy. It can be served with braai or actually almost everything.


Ingredients


Corn
Butter (real farm butter)
Aromat or salt


Method

1. Boil corn in a pot filled with water, corn should be covered

2. Boiling time is a matter of taste; some people like to just boil them a minute or two to warm their corn, leaving the kernels crisp and fresh. Others like to let them boil 3 to 10 minutes for softer kernels. How long you cook your corn depends on your taste.

3. Remove the cooked corn from the hot water with tongs.

4. Serve with butter, salt, and pepper. Some people like to roll their hot corn on a stick of butter, others spread the butter with a knife. Your choice!

I prefer to fry corn in butter for  4 min
