A distinguished culinary classic crafted with authentic techniques and finest ingredients, offering rich depth of flavour and elegant presentation.

Ingredients

  • • 4 corn on the cob
  • • 4 tbsp 0% Greek yogurt
  • • 65 g light feta cheese
  • • 1 lime (cut into wedges)
  • • 1/4 tsp chilli powder
  • • 1/2 tsp salt
  • • 1 tsp paprika
  • • 1 tbsp fresh coriander (finely chopped)
  • • low calorie cooking spray

Preparation Steps

1
Phase 1

Cook the corn in any way you want. Grilled tastes best, but I save time by using my Instant Pot or pressure cooker. Just put a rack or steaming basket in the pot, place the corn on the trivet, and add about 11/2 cups water. Enough to cover the bottom by a good 1/2 inch but not rise above the bottom of the trivet. Cook at high pressure for 4 minutes. Quick-release pressure manually. You can also put it into a pan of boiling water for 5 minutes or so.

Phase 2

While the corn is cooking, make the sauce. Combine the yoghurt, feta, chilli powder and salt. Stir well.

Phase 3

As soon as the corn is cooked, spray with low calorie cooking spray and rub the sauce all over. Place cobs on a plate, dust with paprika and coriander. Garnish with the lime wedges and serve!
