Cilantro lime corn on the cob (vegan
This second recipe on my best corn on the cob recipe list is probably a little controversial. Cilantro has a way of dividing people, lol
If you are a cilantro lover, like me, this cilantro corn on the cob recipe is going to make you drool.
I used cilantro, green enchilada sauce and spices blended together and then, doused the corn with it. It was then cooked in a pressure cooker for a few minutes. You can also use a regular grill to make it.
Mexican corn on the cob (vegetarian)
This is one of those recipes that makes EVERYONE drool. It’s that combination of corn, cotija and tajin that makes this elote recipe completely irresistible!
I grilled this in the oven, but, you can easily grill it on a grill or make it stove top. Either way, you will never make Elote without tajin!
So, I hope you like it and make it today. Send me pics of the recipe

If I had to pick a favorite from this best corn on the cob recipes list, I think this corn on the cob curry would be the one. It is because I am super biased towards Indian food (I talk about my love of Indian food in my Palak Makhani recipe)
So, take this to your next pot-luck party and impress your guests with its distinctive flavors
Loaded with Brussels sprouts
I had to put this recipe on the list because it gets no love from my readers. :(. It seems like it might be hard to eat it, but, its really not.
If its hard to eat with the Brussels sprouts on top, remove the corn from the cob and mix it with the Brussels Sprouts. You an eat it as a salad or a side dish
Either way, this corn on the cob is beyond delicious and you won’t mind the Brussels Sprouts either.
