Ingredients

  • 3 corn on the cob husks removed
  • ½ cup Danish Creamery salted butter room temperature
  • 3-4 tablespoons chopped cilantro plus more for serving
  • Sea salt for serving

Instructions

  • Stand the corn vertically on a cutting board. Place the knife firmly at the top of the corn right in the middle and push the knife downwards carefully, rowing it back and forth if needed. The shorter and wider the corn is, the easier it will be.
  • Hold the two halves together and cut them in half again vertically to create quarters.
  • Combine the butter and cilantro to create the herbed butter. Brush the herbed butter all over the 12 pieces of corn ribs.
  • Place the corn ribs in the preheated air fryer in a single layer, leaving space between each of them to allow for air flow
  • Air fry at 400ºF until the corn ribs start to curl and become charred, 10-15 minutes.
  • Serve with sprinkling of sea salt and fresh cilantro, if desired.

Notes

Recipe: This recipe is inspired by the Tik Tok video by Spiced Nice.
Storage: These corn ribs are best served as soon as they are made, but leftovers will keep well covered in the fridge for 2 to 3 days. Reheat them in the air fryer at 360F for 2 to 3 minutes or in the oven at 375F for around 8 minutes.
