Cook

- 🧂Put a heavy-based dry frying pan on a high heat and,
- 🍳once hot, lay the drained corn in the pan and char for a couple of minutes on each side – you’ll probably need to cook them two or three at a time, so you don’t overcrowd the pan.

Steps
- 🧂Stir in the butter, turn off the heat and set aside.
Cook
- 🍳For the topping, toast the coconut flakes in a hot dry frying pan – coconut burns very easily, so keep them moving and keep your eye on them.
Steps
- As soon as the coconut has a golden, burnished, toasted colour, tip it into a bowl, leave to cool,
Prepare
- 🍽️then mix with the crispy shallots and herbs, and season to taste.
- 🌿To serve, spoon some of the coconut milk mixture over each cob, sprinkle with the toasted coconut mix and lime zest, and tuck in.
