Anweisungen

取鍋，倒入些許沙茶醬的油，先放蒜泥略炒，接著加入沙茶拌炒出香氣。

接著加芝麻醬、蒜粉、糖、辣椒粉、五香粉、胡椒粉、素蠔油、沙茶粉炒香，接著加水，一邊煮一邊拌至均勻並有濃稠感，備用。

鍋中放入足夠蓋過玉米的水，冷水放入玉米煮至水滾，再煮約10分鐘後起鍋。玉米先烤至外皮些微上色，將烤焦部分刷除後，一邊烤一邊塗醬（約塗兩次）至略收汁且有焦香即完成。

Cook the Corn

Place the corn cobs in a large pot and add enough water to cover them.

Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce to medium and cook for 10 minutes.

Remove the corn and drain.

Make the Sauce

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil (from satay sauce or neutral oil) in a small saucepan over medium heat.

Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.

Add satay sauce and stir-fry to release its aroma.

Add the other ingredients: sesame paste, garlic powder, sugar, chili powder, five-spice powder, black pepper powder, vegetarian oyster sauce, and satay powder. Stir-fry until the mixture is aromatic.

Gradually add water, stirring constantly. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly and is well combined.

Remove from heat and set aside.

Grill and Baste the Corn

Preheat a grill or oven broiler to medium-high.

Place the boiled corn on the grill (or a baking sheet under the broiler).

Grill, turning occasionally, until the surface is lightly charred and golden.

Use a brush to remove any burnt bits.

Brush the corn generously with the prepared sauce. Grill for another 2–3 minutes, turning and basting once more, until the sauce caramelizes and the corn is fragrant.

Serve hot.

Notizen

沙茶粉可在食品材料行或網路購得。

玉米可煮或蒸熟再烤，比直接用生玉米來烤更快，塗醬前先將烤焦的部分刷除，才不會影響風味。

This recipe recreates the classic Taiwanese night market grilled corn at home, featuring a sweet and savory basting sauce and perfectly charred kernels. The key is the umami-rich sauce and careful grilling technique, which you can achieve even with a home oven. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BFzTsMFBL54
