Spiced Paprika Butter Recipes

Steps:

• Mix 1/2 stick softened butter, 1 small clove grated garlic, 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika and 1/4 teaspoon finely chopped rosemary. Season with salt and pepper. Boil 4 ears corn in salted water until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain the corn and dot with the spiced butter.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together butter, paprika, salt, and pepper. Use immediately, or refrigerate, covered, up to 1 week.

Steps:

• Peel back the corn husks, then trim away using a sharp knife and discard. Bring a large pan of salted water to the boil, lower the heat to medium and cook the corn cobs for 10 mins. If you'll be cooking the corn in a frying pan instead of the barbecue, cook for 13 mins.
• Meanwhile, make the paprika & lime butter. Mix the softened butter with the paprika until fully combined. Stir in half the lime zest and half the parmesan.
• Light the barbecue, if using, and wait until the coals are ashen. Alternatively, heat a dry frying pan over a medium heat until hot. Drain the corn, pat dry with kitchen paper and brush lightly with the oil. Cook for 7-10 mins in the hot pan or on the barbecue, turning every couple of minutes until golden and slightly charred in spots.
• Remove the corn to a plate using tongs and spread the paprika butter all over it. Sprinkle with the rest of the parmesan, the coriander and the remaining lime zest. Serve with the lime halves for squeezing over.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Spread the nuts on a baking tray and roast for 15 mins. Tip the hot nuts into a bowl and toss with the butter, salt and paprika to taste, until coated. Tip the nuts back onto the tray and roast for 2 mins more to dry the coating onto them. Cool and store in an airtight container. The nuts will keep for 3 days.

Steps:

• Heat Paprika Butter (above) in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 packages thawed frozen corn kernels. Cook, tossing occasionally, until tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add sliced scallions; season with coarse salt and ground pepper. Toss to combine.

Steps:

• Mix 1/2 cup (1 stick) room-temperature unsalted butter, 1 1/4 teaspoons hot smoked paprika, 1 teaspoon celery seeds, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper in a small bowl until well combined; season with salt and pepper.
