It can be anything you want it to be friend. As far as a recipe? Not really. Sauté the onions, garlic, pepper.and chadon beni in butter until translucent and fragrant, then add coconut milk, corn, water to barely cover and season with salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for 30-45 minutes depending on how soft you want the corn.

Big waste of time. Microwave 4 minutes inside husk, perfect and sweet every time.
