Elotes y Eskites

One of the delicious and personally fav snack its the local famous Eskites and Elotes, you will find that corn (elotes) is a common snack and mealtime staple. In Mexico people sell them on streets, carrying the hot pots of salted water along and yelling -Elotes!!-

Sometimes the corn is cut off the cob and put in a cup then the mayo or cream, cheese, a few drops of lime juice, chilli powder are put on top of it. Sometimes they leave it on the cob and just pour the chile pepper and squeeze lemon juice onto it. Here`s the recipe:

Ingredientes

3-6 Corns (whole) Boiled into water

(add 2 Ts of sugar to boiling water to sweeten it)
1 lime cut half
6 tea spoon of Mayonnaise
1/4 t. spoon of chilli powder
1 Cup of Grated Parmesan Cheese


Boils the corns and add 2 tables spoon of sugar to boiling water. Let them air cool!! Put the cheese over a flat plate, rub the lime over the corn, with a spoon rub the mayo all over the corn. Roll every corn on the plate with the cheese on it, sprinkle the chilli powder and salt –to ur taste- ( u can also use the valentine sauce), and voilà!
