Airfried Mexican Cornribs Ingredients

3 Tbsp Olive Oil1 Tsp Garlic Salt1 Tsp Smoked Paprika1 Tsp Pepper1 Tbsp Maple Syrup2 Corn On the CobOPTIONAL: Crumbled Feta1/2 Lime

Method

1. Boil your Corn on the cob for 12-15mins so the inner corn softens up making it easier to cut your corn ribs3. In the meantime, in a bowl add your oil, garlic salt, pepper, smoked paprika and maple syrup4. Once your corn on the cob is boiled and cooked down, this is the tricky part, you’ll need to cut your corn in half first, creating small incisions from top to bottom, it’ll eventually have a cut which you can split open. Repeat the same step to a half a corn to create quarters. Be careful when using a knife, this part can be a little time consuming.5. Using your oil marinade, generously coat your corn ribs and AirFryer for 12 minutes at 200C – the longer you leave it the crispier and curvier your corn rib will get6. Lastly, squeeze a fresh lime all over, add more paprika and i crumbled feta cheese with some garlic white sauce all over.
