Preparation
Get a barbecue going or preheat the oven grill to full power.
Grill the whole corn cobs for 10-12 minutes, turning regularly every 2-3 minutes, until nicely coloured and slightly charred in places.
Meanwhile, mix the cream with a squeeze of lime juice in a bowl.
As soon as they're grilled, generously brush each cob with this creamy mixture using a brush or the back of a spoon.
Sprinkle with grated cheese and a pinch of chili, and serve immediately with a lime wedge, while still hot.
