METHOD
- Remove the husks from the corn and, if necessary, cut the corn so that it is no longer than 14cm in length

- Once cooked, remove the cobs from the air fryer and brush half of the cheese mixture. Place on a serving plate with lime wedges and top with the remaining cheese mixture.
- To finish, scatter with extra feta, coriander, and more hot sauce, if desired. This recipe pairs well with the 'Mexican Spiced Flathead Tacos' recipe cooking in the other drawer for a complete meal. Enjoy!
