I bet you have seen the viral TikTok corn ribs recipes that are popping up everywhere. I thought I give it a try. Well... it turns out that slicing the corns lengthwise is a huge challenge. Firstly, it is quite dangerous to handle. Secondly, it had made my knife blunt and I would not recommend anyone making the corn ribs.

I already bought the corns, so this is pretty much impromptu. I sliced the kernels from the cobs, which is so much easier compared to slicing the corns into wedges, toss them in a very simple Sambal Hijau based vignette, and finally smoking them in their boats-like-husks. Yes! Smoking them in my Personal Size Stovetop Kettle Smoker from Nordic Ware.

My daughters who dislike spicy food and corn, actually finish these without many complaints. That's when I know this is really good. This is like those corn salad, but a leveled up one, my kids commented. I guess I need to start researching how to make Sambal Hijau, so anyone can try this recipe. Stay tuned.

1

Remove the husks from the corn.
Wash the husks and corns thoroughly to remove the silk.
Slice the husks into halves. Set aside.
Slice the kernels from the cobs.
2

Transfer the kernels into a large mixing bowl.
Toss in parsley, tomatoes, Sambal Hijau, sesame oil, salt, pepper and mushroom powder until well combined,
Prepare your smoker as per the instructions manual.
I am using Nordic Ware's Personal Size Stovetop Kettle Smoker.
If you have an outdoor grill and smoker, it will be awesome too.
3

Grease the grilling pan with sesame oil.
Place the 4 husks onto the pan.
Spoon the kernel mixture into the husk, distributing evenly.
Place the cherry tomatoes on top.
4

Smoke the corns for about 25 mins.
While the corns are smoking, mix equal parts of mayo and Sambal Hijau in a small bowl.
Slide the corn boats into each serving plate.
Drizzle the mayo mixture over the top.
Sprinkle dried parsley and sriracha powder over the top.
