Sticky Corn Ribs

10 ingredients

Ingredients

  • 2-3 corn cobs, husked

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)

  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 tbsp agave syrup or maple syrup

  • 1 tbsp brown sugar or coconut sugar

  • 1 tbsp sesame oil

  • 1 tsp rice vinegar

  • Sesame seeds, for garnish

  • Fresh coriander or spring onions, for garnish (optional)

Steps

  • Preheat oven to 200°C.

  • Stand each corn cob upright on a cutting board and carefully cut lengthwise into quarters to create "ribs." Use a sharp, heavy knife and take care as this requires some force.

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, grated ginger, minced garlic, agave syrup, brown sugar, sesame oil, and rice vinegar.

  • Arrange the corn ribs on a lined baking tray and brush generously with about half of the glaze.

  • Roast for 15 minutes, then remove from the oven, turn the ribs, and brush with the remaining glaze.

  • Return to the oven and roast for another 10-15 minutes until the edges are caramelised and slightly charred.

  • Transfer to a serving platter, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and garnish with fresh coriander or spring onions if desired.
