A quick how-to guide

To make corn ribs:

Start by cutting a corn in half then quarter each half, you'll have 8 pieces of corn ribs for each corn.

Pick out a few corn kernel rows at one end (3-5 rows) to make space so you can hold on to corn ribs after the cooking process.

Fill a large pan with 2 cups of vegetable oil and heat on medium-high heat.

Fry corn ribs, few sticks at a time. Don't overcrowd the pan.

You know the corn is done when it starts to curl toward the 'rib' direction.

To make tasty garlic butter sauce:

melted butter on a pan then add spice mixture and chopped parsley to it

Start by melting the butter over medium heat.

Add minced garlic and sauté for 2 minutes. Stir constantly to prevent them from burning or scorching.

Add chopped parsley and spice mixture. Turn off the heat and remove the pan from the stove immediately.

To serve:

brush corn on the cobs with garlic butter mixture

Brush garlic butter sauce or use a spoon to pour the sauce all over corn ribs.

It is important to eat these deep-fried corn ribs as soon as you brush/put the garlic butter mixture on them. Or the corn will soak up all the amazing sauce and become soggy.

You can sprinkle more Old Bay seasoning on the finished corn ribs if desired.
