Grilled Mexican street corn, also known as elote, is perfect for summer. The mix of spices really makes the flavours sing, and the slight spiciness is balanced out with creamy Boursin. Serve this vegetarian side dish at your next barbecue or outdoor dinner party. Recipe created by ScottCanEat for Boursin.

6 ears of corn - fresh or frozen (thawed if frozen)1 tbsp olive oil
