De bereidingswijze
Stap voor stap
- 1
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Ongeveer 5 min
Tip van de kok: If you don't have a grill, you can roast the corn in a 200°C oven for 20-25 minutes, or boil it for 5-7 minutes.
- 2
Grill the corn on the cob, turning occasionally, until it is tender and slightly charred, about 10-15 minutes.
Ongeveer 15 min
Tip van de kok: A good char adds a smoky depth of flavor that is essential for authentic elote.
- 3
While the corn is grilling, prepare the creamy dressing. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, lime, chili powder, and cayenne pepper (if using). Stir until well combined.
Ongeveer 5 min
Tip van de kok: Taste the dressing and adjust the chili powder and cayenne to your preferred spice level.
- 4
Once the corn is cooked, remove it from the grill.
- 5
Generously spread the prepared dressing all over each ear of grilled corn.
Ongeveer 2 min
Tip van de kok: Use a brush or a spoon to ensure even coverage.
- 6
Sprinkle the crumbled cotija cheese evenly over the dressed corn.
Ongeveer 1 min
Tip van de kok: If you can't find cotija, a salty, crumbly feta cheese can be a decent substitute.

Garnish with fresh cilantro, if desired, and serve immediately.
