- 2 Tbsp unsalted butter (softened at room temperature)

- Pinch of paprika powder (for color and subtle flavor)
- 2-3 Tbsp finely grated Parmesan cheese (don’t be shy!)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, carefully remove the outer husks and silky tassels from the fresh super sweet corn ears. Be gentle to avoid damaging the kernels.
Step 2
Place the prepared corn into a steamer basket. Steam for about 10 minutes over high heat once the water is boiling. It’s important to steam them thoroughly until tender inside.
Step 3
In a bowl, combine the softened butter, mayonnaise, and sugar. Whisk together until smooth, creating a delicious buttery sauce. Ensure the sugar is well incorporated.
Step 4
Heat a frying pan over medium heat and melt the prepared butter sauce. Once melted, add the steamed corn ears to the pan. Roll the corn around continuously, ensuring the buttery sauce coats each kernel evenly. Grill until the kernels turn a beautiful golden-brown, developing a delicious toasted flavor.
Step 5
Transfer the grilled corn to a serving plate. While still warm, generously sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese all over. The cheese will melt slightly, adding a wonderful savory and nutty aroma.
Step 6
Finally, for a touch of color and a hint of spice, lightly dust with paprika powder. Alternatively, you can add a pinch of fine chili powder if you prefer a little heat. Your visually appealing and incredibly delicious ‘Drug Corn’ is now ready to enjoy!
