Ingredients for Vietnamese Grilled Corn

Grilling Your Corn to Perfection

1. Prepare the scallion oil: Thinly slice the scallions, both the white and green parts. Heat the oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the scallions and cook until fragrant and slightly wilted, but not browned. Remove from heat and set aside.
2. Grill the corn: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Husk the corn and place it directly on the grill. Rotate the corn frequently to ensure even charring on all sides.
3. Combine flavors: Once the corn is cooked, brush it generously with the scallion oil. Sprinkle with salt and a pinch of sugar, if desired. For an added touch of flavor and texture, sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.

Tips and Variations for Your Grilled Corn Adventure

• For a smoky flavor, try grilling the corn in the husk for a few minutes before removing it and continuing to grill directly on the heat.
• Love spicy food? Add a pinch of chili flakes to the scallion oil for a fiery kick. How about trying our How to Make Vietnamese Fried Corn with Butter for another twist?
• Experiment with different oils, such as coconut oil, for a unique flavor profile.
