Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 or 6 ears fresh sweet corn (to make 3 to 4 cups kernels)
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds
1/3 cup minced onion
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
2 cups unsweetened coconut milk
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Cayenne pepper
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh coriander leaves

Steps:

Husk the corn and remove the silk. Stand each ear upright in a shallow bowl, and cut the kernels off with a sharp knife. With the back of the knife, scrape the cob down to press out the milk. Set aside.
Rub the bottom of a saute pan with the oil, and place over medium heat. Add the cumin and onion, and saute until the onion is translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add corn kernels with their milk, the ginger and the coconut milk. Season to taste with salt, pepper and cayenne. Heat until simmering; add coriander, and mix well. Serve hot or warm.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1 serrano chile or jalapeño, thinly sliced
1 (3") piece fresh ginger, peeled, cut into matchsticks
4 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
2 scallions, thinly sliced, plus more for serving
½ tsp. ground turmeric
4 ears of corn, shucked, kernels removed
1 cup cooked grains (such as freekeh, farro, or quinoa)
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk, plus more for serving
Kosher salt
4 Tbsp. store-bought crispy onions or shallots (such as Lars Own, French's, or Maesri)
Lime wedges (for serving)

Steps:

Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium. Cook chile, ginger, garlic, and 2 sliced scallions, tossing, until softened and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add turmeric and cook, stirring frequently, just until darkened and fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add corn and increase heat to medium-high. Cook, tossing occasionally, until corn is beginning to lightly brown, about 5 minutes.
Add grains to skillet and cook, tossing often, until heated through and beginning to crisp around the edges, about 2 minutes. Add ½ cup coconut milk; season with salt. Bring to a simmer and cook, adding 1-2 Tbsp. water if needed to loosen, until flavors have come together, about 3 minutes.
Divide corn mixture between plates or shallow bowls and drizzle with more coconut milk. Top with crispy onions and more scallion. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing over.
