Seasoning mix
- 2 tsp. vegan butter

Instructions
- Remove the husk, silk and snip off the ends of the corn. Keep aside.
- Place the corn on the cob in the air fryer basket. You can do 2-3 at one time. If your air fryer basket is small, cut the corn into halves and then air fry.
- Air fry at 200C or 390F for about 10-12 minutes till the corn gets nicely roasted and juicy.
- Make a spice mix by adding ½ tsp. salt, ½ tsp. cayenne or paprika or chilli flakes, 1 tsp. lemon juice to 2 tsp. melted vegan butter
- Brush this spice mix liberally. on the air fried corn. I avoid adding it before air frying because the butter may burn a bit and so does cayenne.
- Dig in and enjoy.

Notes
1. Choose fresh corn: They are the tastiest.
2. Brush vegan butter/olive oil with seasonings after air frying to prevent vegan butter and spices from burning during air frying. You can also choose not to use any spices. The corn is super sweet and delicious as is.
3. If your air fryer basket cannot fit whole corn on the cob, cut them into halves and threes to fit more at a time.
4. Use butter in place of vegan butter for a vegetarian recipe.
5. For zero oil healthy version: Skip vegan butter. Just add the seasonings to lemon juice and brush these on the roasted corn. They taste delicious.
6. For an indulgent twist, put some grated vegan cheese on the corn in the last minute or two of air frying for delicious melted cheese on your ready corn.
