Method

  1. Pull any thick outer leaves off the corn cobs, fold back the rest of the leaves and pull out the silky threads. Mix together the butter and smoked paprika and smear onto the sweetcorn. Sprinkle with sea salt, fold the leaves back over and wrap well in foil. Barbecue for about 20 minutes until tender. Open it carefully so you don't spill any buttery juices. Serve with lemon wedges.
