Grilled Corn

Grilled corn is a summer classic – and when cooked with your main course, this dish enables the whole meal to come right off the grill. Mexican-style corn ("Elote") includes lime juice, mayonnaise, cheese, and chili powder. The method below doesn't go quite that far, but takes inspiration from the tradition and uses fresh lemon juice and a spinkling of Parmesan
