Ingredients
Measurements:
2 ears of corn
husks and silk removed
1 tsp sea salt
plus extra to serve
Freshly ground pepper
to season
3 tbsp vegetable oil
Instructions
1Trim the ends from the corn, if necessary. Cut the corn in half crosswise. Place each half, standing vertically on the cutting board. Use the handle of a wooden spoon to hammer on the back of the knife to cut in half lengthwise. Then, cut into quarters lengthwise.
2Insert the oven rack into position 3 Down. Place the roasting pan on the rack to catch any drips during cooking. Set the oven to Air Fry, Super Convection, 430°F, for 13 minutes and press Start to preheat. Meanwhile, continue to the next step.
3Place the salt, pepper and oil in a large bowl and whisk to combine. Add the corn and toss to coat. Place the corn in a single layer, in the air fry basket.
4Once preheated, place the basket into position 1 and air fry for 13 minutes. When the oven signals, rotate the basket and continue cooking.
5The corn kernels should be lightly charred and tender when pierced with a knife. If not, press A Bit More.
Tip: It may need a little more or a little less extra cooking time, best to keep an eye on it.
6With just a sprinkle of salt add these juicy corn ribs to your barbecue party or game day platter. Whip them up midweek to serve with chicken and mash or burgers and slaw. Focusing on your 5 serves a day? Serve with Caesar or garden salad, a baked potato or veggie lasagna.
