Grilled Corn on the Cob With Roasted Red Pepper Mayonnaise

~Leslie~'s Note:

This surprising combination adds more sweetness to an already sweet summer treat of corn on the cob. The roasted red pepper mayo is also delicious with grilled potatoes or other favourite vegetables. Recipe by Emily Richards from Food and Drink.

Both DH and I loved these corn cobs! The corn was nice and crisp cooked on the grill and the roasted red pepper mayo was just divine! I basted the corn several times with the mayo and just let the final baste melt into the corn a little, took them off the grill and ate right away. Great recipe! Made for the Babes of ZWT4.

Really nice, but i will use butter next time too. Also i couldn't find roasted red peppers, so i used a red pepper (not a bell pepper) which i roasted myself on the flame of my stove. Made for ZWT4 for the Tastebud Tickling Travellers.
