Instructions
- Don't remove the husk of the corn.
- Place the cobs in the microwave and cook on a high setting for 5 minutes.
- Remove the ears of corn from the microwave. (They will be hot, so use tongs or a clean tea towel to protect your hands.)
- Place the corn on a chopping board.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the stem end of the corn off about ½ inch/1.5cm from the bottom.
- Use a cloth to protect you from the heat, slide off the husk and the silks. They should glide off easily.
Notes
- If you cook more than 2 ears of corn, add 2 extra minutes for every corn.
- Adjust the cooking time depending on the power of your microwave.
