Oven Roasted Corn on the Cob

This oven roasted corn on the cob with a coriander and jalapeño soured cream dip is the tastiest side dish you’ll eat all year!

Corn on the cob is so easy to make when you roast it in the oven. The sweetness becomes slightly nutty – an absolutely delicious contrast – and it’s a brilliantly hands off way of cooking.

I love to serve this corn on the cob with meats – like my Texan Style Slow Cooked Beef, perhaps with a mac and cheese on the side.

Don’t skip the dip – that’s what makes this extra tasty! Just dunk your corn on the cob into it as you’re eating, and enjoy!

Oven Roasted Corn on the Cob – The Ingredients

  • Corn on the cob – you can make this recipe either with frozen corn on the cob or raw corn on the cob – both will work. No need to precook.
  • Smoked paprika and salt – the only flavourings you need! Trust me on this!
  • Oil and butter – we drizzle a little vegetable oil over the corn before roasting, and dab some butter on just before it comes out for that traditional buttery taste.
  • Soured cream, coriander, jalapeños – make this tonight with your corn on the cob, then make it tomorrow night to dip your crisps in! It’s a versatile and delicious dip with just a hint of spice.
