Sweet pickled corn
Sweet pickled corn on the cob
Pickled corn on the cob has become a summertime favorite at Dip HQ. With corn in season it’s the best time to make this side.
Ingredients:
- 4 ears of corn, remove skins
- 250ml cider vinegar
- 150g sugar
- Two table spoons of salt
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 Large red onion
- 3 red chillies/ and or 3 star anise
Method:
- Bring the vinegar, water, sugar, salt and a bay leaf to the boil stirring constantly to make sure the sugar dissolves
- Stir in the chillies and turn off the heat and allow to cool
- Slice a large red onion and cut corn into smaller pieces 4/5cm
- Layer the corn pieces and onion in a kilner jar and then pour the mixture over the top and refrigerate with the jar open until its completely cold then close
- For best results keep for at least 2 days and then BBQ
- If you want a sweeter corn try some star anise instead of the chili or both for a more Asian flavour
