    Sweetcorn with chilli, herbs & lime

    British sweetcorn really comes into its own during barbecue season. It makes a tantalising side when drizzled with flavoured oil and griddled until tender.

    Ingredients

    1 x pack 2 Essential Sweetcorn
    1 tbsp olive oil
    1 unwaxed lime 
    ½ x large red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
