Skillet corn with cilantro & cumin

Giovanni Apollo is one of 80 top chefs who participated in my latest cookbook À la bonne franquette. On the French side of my blog, I review and cook from one of his personal cookbooks, which may or may not interest English readers. (By the way, I give it a thumbs-up.)

Monsieur was dancing with happiness when I served this skillet side dish of Cumin & Cilantro Corn. It’s corn season right now, which explains why I chose such a simple dish. Plus we are committed corn lovers. This has earned its place in the monthly rotation for sure. I suspect that even in winter using frozen corn kernels, the bright taste will shine through. Thanks, chef!
