Directions
Cut limes in quarters, or halves if soft.
Mix dry ingredients together.
Roast ears of corn, one or two at a time, over a hot grill or open gas burner flame, until kernels are lightly browned.
Dip lime sections in spice mixture.
Squeeze lime juice into corn kernels while rubbing with cut surface of lime to allow lime juice to carry spices into the corn.
Continue until lime slices and spices are used up.

I've had it this way in Mexico (sans the dried mango powder---where the heck do you get that?) and it is absolutely wonderful. Will have to try making this at home. Thanks for posting.

I have to say the mango powder is definitely not easy to find. We found it in a Indian store, general grocery stores don't carry this stuff; but it's not a critical ingredient, so if you don't have it, just skip it, and it will still be outstanding!
