Elote (Mexican Street Corn)

Turn up the heat on a street food favourite! Sweet, juicy corn smothered in a creamy, spicy Sriracha sauce and loaded with melted Mexicana® Cheese. Finished with zesty lime, fresh coriander and a kick of chilli, this bold and cheesy side dish packs a serious flavour punch!

Step 1: In a bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, Sriracha, lime juice, chicken stock, salt, pepper and sugar until smooth.

Step 2: Heat a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the sweetcorn and pour over the sauce mixture. Cook for 4–5 minutes, stirring regularly until heated through.

Step 3: Stir in the grated Mexicana Bar and continue cooking until the cheese has melted into the sauce.

Step 4: Spoon into a serving bowl and finish with fresh coriander, a sprinkle of chilli powder and a drizzle of chilli oil, if desired.

Serve immediately.
