Oven Roasted Honey Miso Corn on the Cob

Corn, despite some urban myths, is packed with vitamins, full of dietary fiber and makes a pretty healthy food choice.

We love having corn at home. Apart from making the usual corn soup, I love roasting them in the oven. They're easy to prepare and taste as good as, if not better, with all the caramelised bits!

Oven Roasted Honey Miso Corn on the Cob (serves 2)

    2     ears of Corn
15g     Miso
  5g     Honey
15g     Vegetable Oil
pinch of salt

Preheat oven to 200°C

1. Cut off the stem of the corns and microwave them for 3-5mins. Hold them by the top, squeeze and shake gently at the same time and the corn will slide out from the stem end. Cut into smaller portions as desired.

2. Mix the remaining ingredients till homogenous, then brush them onto the corn. Cover the baking pan loosely with aluminium foil and bake for 15mins.

3. Remove the aluminium foil, give them a turn and brush on the remaining honey miso mixture. Bake for another 10-15mins, uncovered, till the kernels are nicely browned. Cool slightly before serving.

Thoughts: It's no secret that I love all food that's sweet and savoury. I really enjoy this combination of honey and miso! The salty miso enhances the natural sweetness of corn and also lends a subtle nuttiness, while the honey gave it a slight floral perfume. Anyone who enjoys sweet and savoury food should really give this simple recipe a go, you will love it!
