Street Fair Corn
A special guest recipe from the Vegan Mos
Summer
in New York City means weekend street fairs. The fairs have no rides or
games. Instead, avenues are closed to traffic for several blocks, where
dozens of vendors sell food. One of the most popular foods is Mexican
Street Corn—freshly grilled sweet corn coated in a mixture of cheese
and spiced mayonnaise. We created a vegan version of this dish that
tastes even better than the original. (From NYC Vegan, copyright © 2017 by Michael Suchman and Ethan Ciment. Photo by Jackie Sobon. Used by permission.)
Serves 4
Street Fair Corn 1/4 cup nondairy mayonnaise
1/4 cup nondairy sour cream
1/4 cup nondairy parmesan, plus more for serving
1/2 teaspoon chili powder, plus more for serving
1 medium clove garlic, finely minced
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro or Italian parsley
4 ears sweet corn, shucked
1 lime, cut into wedges
1. Heat a grill for direct-heat grilling, or heat a grill pan
over high heat on the stove. While the grill is heating, in a medium
mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, cashew parmesan, chili
powder, garlic, and cilantro. Stir until completely combined.
2. Place the corn directly on the hot grill and cook, rotating occasionally, until cooked through
and charred in spots on all sides, about 8 minutes total.
3. Remove the corn from the grill and transfer to a serving plate. Use
a pastry or basting brush to generously coat each ear of corn with the
mayonnaise mixture. Sprinkle with extra cheese and chili powder and
serve immediately with lime wedges.
