This is the best corn I have ever had. It is a copycat of corn I had at a modern Mexican restaurant in Narrabeen, Sydney, called Mexicano (which I think is the second best corn! :) ) ! The chargrilled flavour is key for the ultimate corn experience. But don't worry! You can make it on stovetop - I've provided directions for both methods.Real Mexican street corn is sprinkled with Cotjia which isn't available here in Sydney. Parmesan is a ripper substitute - and dare I say it takes it to another level!
