OVER THE COALS...

SWEETCORN IN A BLANKET
To make this recipe live up to its name, remember to buy sweetcorn which still has its husk on. If only ready peeled sweetcorn is available, you will need to brush the cobs with melted butter or oil to prevent them drying out.

1 Soak the corn cobs in a bowl of lightly salted water for at least 30 minutes. (This stops the kernels drying out on the barbecue.)

2 Drain the cobs, shaking off any excess water.

3 Place on the barbecue and cook for 20-30 minutes turning frequently.

4 Strip away the husks to reveal a tender juicy sweetcorn cob.
