Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons fish sauce (such as nam pla or nuoc nam)*
2 tablespoons water
1 1/2 tablespoons (packed) golden brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus additional for brushing corn
1 tablespoon thinly sliced green onions, white part only (from about 3)
6 ears of corn, husked

Steps:

  • Stir first 4 ingredients in small bowl until sugar dissolves. Melt butter with 2 tablespoons oil in small saucepan over medium heat. Add fish sauce mixture and green onions and simmer until sauce begins to thicken, about 2 minutes.
  • Do ahead: Butter sauce can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
  • Preheat barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush corn with oil. Grill corn until tender and charred in spots, about 13 minutes. Brush corn generously with butter sauce and serve, passing remaining sauce separately.
  • *Fish sauce is a versatile ingredient. Try it (1) mixed with garlic and cilantro as a marinade for grilled chicken; (2) in barbecue sauce for ribs; (3) in a salad of slivered green apples and chopped cilantro; and (4) in a compound butter with cayenne and shallots for grilled fish. It is available in the Asian foods section of many supermarkets and at Asian markets.

GRILLED CORN WITH FISH SAUCE AND SCALLIONS

In this easy, Vietnamese-inspired side, fresh corn is grilled then topped off with a mixture of melted butter, sambal oelek, lime juice, and fish sauce-which adds umami but doesn't overpower. The results are deeply flavorful, slightly spicy, and wholly delicious ears of corn perfect for a lively summer cookout.

GRILLED SWORDFISH WITH CORN SALAD



Grilled Swordfish With Corn Salad image

Swordfish is one of the easiest fish to grill. Because it's firm and thick, it can be cooked over hot coals for a while to pick up their smoky flavor, and it doesn't fall apart when flipped. Serve with anything you'd eat with a steak or pork chop, like a bright and crunchy corn salad. Here, raw corn is mixed with long pieces of chives and cilantro in a move inspired by lao hu cai, or tiger salad, a Dongbei salad of cilantro and scallions, and buchu muchim, or Korean chive salad. When the salad is piled onto the fish, the rice vinegar and sesame oil dressing seasons the fish, and the corn and herbs soften slightly from the heat. The result is all at once fragrant, crunchy, juicy and satisfying.

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 (6-ounce) swordfish steaks, 1- to 1 1/2-inches thick
6 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
Neutral oil, such as grapeseed
1 1/2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil, plus more for serving
2 ears of corn, kernels cut from cobs (about 2 cups kernels)
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 ounce chives, cut into 1-inch lengths (about 1 slightly heaping cup)
1 small bunch cilantro (about 2 1/2 ounces), leaves and stems cut into 1-inch lengths
Flaky salt, for serving

Steps:

  • Prepare a charcoal grill for two-zone cooking over medium-high heat by pouring the coals onto one half of the grill. For a gas grill, heat all the burners to high, then turn off one of the end burners before cooking. (See Tip.)
  • While the grill's heating, pat the fish dry and make the salad: In a medium bowl, combine the rice vinegar, 3 tablespoons neutral oil, sesame oil and corn. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chives and cilantro on top (don't stir them in), and season with salt and pepper.
  • When you're ready to grill, pat the fish dry again, then drizzle with 1 teaspoon salt and lightly coat with oil. Take the fish, salad, a tightly folded paper towel soaked with oil, tongs, a fish spatula and a serving platter to the grill. Clean the grates with a grill brush, then oil the grates with the paper towel. Grill the fish until well browned on one side and it releases easily from the grates, 4 to 6 minutes. Flip with a fish spatula and cook until it registers 130 degrees, 2 to 4 minutes. (For a gas grill, close the lid between flips, listening and keeping an eye out for flare-ups.)
  • Transfer to the platter. Toss the salad to combine, then top the fish right away with the salad, spooning extra dressing over the fish. Let rest for 5 minutes before eating. Season to taste with flaky salt, pepper and sesame oil.

CORN ON THE COB WITH LIME, FISH SAUCE AND PEANUTS



Corn on the Cob With Lime, Fish Sauce and Peanuts image

As this recipe proves, lime juice, fish sauce and sugar is a powerful combination you should commit to memory. Traditionally, those three ingredients form the base of several classic Thai and Vietnamese sauces like nuoc cham and nam pla prik. The mayonnaise here is barely noticeable, but it serves an important role in helping the flavors adhere to the corn. The cilantro is optional so no one will throw a fit.

Time 15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 ears fresh corn, shucked
1 lime
6 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 teaspoons fish sauce
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
1/2 to 3/4 cup finely chopped unsalted roasted peanuts
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat grill to medium-high. Grill corn, turning occasionally, until cooked through and lightly charred, 10 to 12 minutes. (Alternatively, drop corn in a large pot of salted boiling water and cook for 5 to 7 minutes.)
  • Meanwhile, zest the lime. Set aside the zest then cut the lime in half. Cut one half into four wedges and squeeze the remaining half into a small bowl. Stir the mayonnaise, fish sauce and sugar into the lime juice.
  • Slather hot corn with mayonnaise mixture. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts, or, for maximum coverage, roll corn in peanuts spread on a plate. Sprinkle with lime zest and cilantro, if using. Serve with lime wedges alongside for squeezing.
