What is Mexican Corn Eloté?
Eloté is popular Mexican street food. It’s basically just corn on the cob that has been grilled or boiled, and slathered with a delightful sauce, various seasonings, and cheese. It’s quite simple yet incredibly delectable. Though traditional Mexican Corn Eloté is typically served on the cob and grilled, I decided to simplify the dish by using frozen corn and by cooking it in the air fryer. Using frozen corn saves time and effort while cooking it in the air fryer saves you from having to fire up the grill. Not to mention the air fryer gives you a similar texture to grilling the corn.

How Do You Eat Elote?
Just dig in. When it comes to eating this Mexican corn, there really aren’t many rules. If you eat it on the cob, make sure you have a napkin (or three). If you choose to eat Mexican corn in a cup, mix it up well and make sure you get some of the creamy goodness from the butter and mayo in every bite.
How Do I Make Elote Without An Air Fryer?
No air fryer, no problem. You can get the same flavors by boiling the corn to cook it. It won’t have the same crisp bite as the air fryer version, but it will taste just as delicious.

Just cook up a batch next taco Tuesday or cook some up as a delicious vegetarian friendly snack and see for yourself!
