Instructions
- 1. If you prefer smaller servings, break the ears of sweet corn in half. Place in a large bowl.
- 2. In a medium bowl, mix all the remaining ingredients except the vegan parmesan. Pour this marinade over the corn and allow the corn to marinate for at least 1 hour (longer is better), turning the corn often to ensure they are evenly covered.
- 3. Grill over direct heat to get those lovely grill marks, then move the corn to indirect heat to continue cooking until juicy and tender. Baste with remaining marinade often.
- 4. Serve with vegan parmesan.
