Perhaps one of the most anticipated harvests of the year here in Nova Scotia. Fresh from the field, dehusked and put in a big boiling pot of water for 15 minutes.
We love corn on the cob, and a variety called Peaches N Cream is perhaps one of the sweetest. So pick up a dozen at the farmers market, along with some butter, and dental floss.
It’s time to indulge.

Sorry for not posting much recipe dishes. I have been on holiday and then been busy as soon as i got back :( so hadn't had time to do my usual weekly recipes. Fortunately i had a very small BBQ with friends celebrating the end of British Summer (Wasn't much to celebrate weather wise at all but we had above 25deg…so hey celebrations all round)
On the BBQ menu i had the usual , chicken ,burgers,sausages, lamb and ribs , potato salad,fresh salad and coconut milk corn and decided to make ochro and rice instead of my usual fried rice or rice and peas (ochro and rice recipe )
RECIPE
Ingredients
4 plump fresh ears of corn or frozen corn if u want
1 teaspoon finely chopped thyme / parsley / chives
1 teaspoon minced garlic or flakes
1/2 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes or black pepper
1 (400 ml) can coconut milk
1 pinch salt (or to taste)
Directions:
Shuck the corn, wash, and chop off each end.
Add the herbs/spices to a saucepan with the coconut milk and simmer the corn gently in it for around 10 minutes until the sauce is thickened and the corn is tender. Spoon the sauce over the corn and serve speared onto corn forks or toothpicks, or prepare for messy fingers! Spoon up any leftover sauce.
