Easy Air Fried Corn Ribs
Description
Corn ribs are a fun new snack cooked in the air fryer. This easy version is reminiscent of Mexican street corn sprinkled with cotija cheese and crema con sal.
Ingredients
•
4 ears ears corn on the cob
•
3 tablespoons "Everything but the Elote seasoning" (Trader Joe's®), divided
•
nonstick cooking spray
•
1/4 cup grated cotija cheese
•
2 tablespoons Mexican crema, crema fresca
•
1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro, or more to taste
Directions
1
Preheat an air fryer to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) for 7 minutes.
2
Meanwhile stand corn cobs on the end, and with a sharp knife (I used a wüsthof nakiri) cut each ear down the middle. Place corn cob halves flat on a cutting board and cut in half lengthwise (you will get a total of 4 'ribs' per ear of corn).
3
Spray each corn rib with non-stick spray. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of seasoning over the 16 corn ribs.
4
Air fry corn ribs in batches for a total of 12 minutes. Remove from air fryer.
5
Drizzle crema con sal over corn 'ribs' and sprinkle with cotija cheese and remaining seasoning. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
