CHARRED CORN WITH JALAPEÑO BUTTER

With so many of us joining the #WFH movement (TLSE team included) or just generally doing our part to socially isolate by staying home, we're going to need to get a bit creative with how we spend our down time (so we don't all lose our minds)!

Thank your lucky stars, 'coz TLSE resident chef, Douk Konstantaras, is back with some seriously drool-worthy recipes for you to use up some of that food you've stocked up on (and now don't know what to do with!).
