GRILLED CORN WITH CHEESE, LIME AND CHILE (ELOTES)



Grilled Corn With Cheese, Lime and Chile (Elotes) image

Whole ears of corn are a classic street food in Mexico, where they are either grilled or boiled, then often dressed with some combination of lime, chile, mayonnaise and grated cheese. This grilled version calls for all of the above, which get mixed together into a creamy, bracing topping, and slathered all over the hot, sweet ears. It's not strictly traditional, but it does make it easier to assemble the corn and its dressing before serving. Or place the various topping in small bowls and let guests have the fun of garnishing their own. And if you don't have a grill, the broiler works too though watch the ears carefully so they don't burn.
