Maïs Grillé (Barbecued Corn Cobs): A Nigerienne recipe for an accompaniment of corn cobs in a chilli margarine baste with lime that's cooked on a barbecue until tender.

Ingredients:

4 corn cobs
100g margarine or butter
1 hot chilli, pounded to a paste
1/2 tsp freshly-ground black pepper
1 tbsp freshly-grated lime zest
2 tbsp lime juice

Method:

Pre-heat your barbecue. Cream the margarine (or butter) in a bowl and work in the chilli paste, black pepper, lime zest and lime juice. Beat until smooth and evenly combined.

Brush the corn cobs with the margarine mix and place on your barbecue. Cook for about 20 minutes, turning frequently and basting with the margarine mix, until tender and slightly charred in places.

Serve hot as an accompaniment or vegetarian barbecue dish.
