Mexican Feast: Spicy Sweetcorn Recipe
The first course in our Mexican Feast was one of my favourites, It’s best done on the BBQ but works just as well on the griddle pan or under the grill.
How long you cook the sweetcorn for will depend on the size of your sweetcorn and how hot your pan is. There is a very similar recipe in the Mexican Food Made Simple book too.

Method
- Heat your griddle pan up so it’s smoking hot, place corn on and cook until it goes golden and shiny or starts to pop, keep turning so that it’s cooked all round.
