Korean corn ‘ribs’
One for the non meat eaters. These fibre-rich sweetcorn ribs are coated in a sweet and sticky gochujang marinade and take less than 15 minutes to cook in an air fryer. Alternatively, you can oven cook at 190C for 25-30 minutes but the secret is to keep basting with the marinade and to push them to the point of charring for extra smokiness and crispiness.

Share
-
Preheat the air fryer for 3 minutes at 200C and place the shredded spring onion in a glass of cold water to crisp up.
-
Sit each corn on a flat base, then cut into four lengthways (be careful as the stem is quite tough to cut through).
-
Coat the sweetcorn ‘ribs’ in the avocado oil and add to the air fryer basket in a single layer. Cook at 200C for 8 minutes, giving the tray a shake halfway through.
-
To make the Korean marinade, add the gochujang chilli paste to a bowl and stir in the soy sauce, tomato ketchup, rice vinegar and honey. Season to taste and set aside.
-
After 8 minutes, brush the sweetcorn ‘ribs’ with the Korean marinade and cook for another 4 minutes, checking regularly to make sure the edges aren’t charring too much.
-
Transfer to a dish and glaze with any leftover marinade. Scatter over the white sesame seeds and garnish with the crispy spring onion curls before serving.
