Method

  1. Combine the spice mix with the butter and rub over the corncobs. Put each mini cob on a large square of foil and twist the ends of the foil to secure.
  2. Cook the cobs on a preheated barbecue, turning occasionally, for 15-20 minutes (or cook in a preheated oven gas 7, 220ºC, fan 200ºC for 10 minutes). Garnish with the chilli and coriander and serve with the lime wedges to squeeze over.
