Приготовление

Шаг за шагом

1. 1

   Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

   Около 5 мин

   Совет повара: 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. 2

   Grill the corn on the cob, turning occasionally, until it is tender and slightly charred, about 10-15 minutes.

   Около 15 мин

   Совет повара: A good char adds a smoky depth of flavor that is essential for authentic elote.

3. 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.

   Около 5 мин

   Совет повара: Taste the dressing and adjust the chili powder and cayenne to your preferred spice level.

4. 4

   Once the corn is cooked, remove it from the grill.

5. 5

   Generously spread the prepared dressing all over each ear of grilled corn.

   Около 2 мин

   Совет повара: Use a brush or a spoon to ensure even coverage.

6. 6

   Sprinkle the crumbled cotija cheese evenly over the dressed corn.

   Около 1 мин

   Совет повара: If you can't find cotija, a salty, crumbly feta cheese can be a decent substitute.

7. 7

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