Corn ......always the best in taste & for health...Tastes excellent when roasted than cooked in boiling water / steam.

Ingredients

Corn - 4 Nos. (all husks removed & cleaned)

Oil

Red chilli powder / Pepper powder

Salt

Broiler Tray (mostly comes with the oven)

Method

1. Set the oven to broiler mode with its maximum temperarure.(mine is 500 deg F)
2. Place the oven rack in the upper position, very nearer to the heat source (make sure the broiler tray can get inside w/o touching the heat source)
3. Dip fingers in oil and apply oil all over the corns.
4. With a paper tissue, spread chilli powder / pepper powder & salt all over the corns according to the required taste and spiciness.
5. Arrange the corns on the broiler tray with equal spacing (better to arrange big sized corns directly under the heat source. )
6. Cook for 30 - 40 min, turning the corn once every 5 min after the first 15 min.
7. Serve hot.

Note

1. Step 4 can also be done once the corn is roasted, but "Be cautious...contents are hot."
2. The stem on the top of each corn may sometime catch fire. Have an eye on them in the last few minutes (OR) they can be removed initially too.
