Method

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease a 10cm x 20cm loaf pan and line the base and 2 long sides with baking paper, allowing the sides to overhang.
  2. Step 2

    Combine the flour, cornmeal, salt and sugar in a large bowl. Add the corn, chilli, coriander and feta. Gently stir to combine.
  3. Step 3

    Whisk milk, butter and egg in a jug. Add to the flour mixture and combine. Pour into prepared pan and smooth the surface. Sprinkle the extra sliced chilli over the top. Bake for 40-45 mins or until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean.
  4. Step 4

    Meanwhile, to make the chilli butter, preheat a grill on high. Place chillies under grill, turning occasionally, for 5 mins or until chillies blacken and blister. Place in a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap. Set aside to cool for 5 mins. Peel chillies and remove seeds. Finely chop. Add to butter with the paprika and combine. Place in the fridge to set.
  5. Step 5

    Cut warm cornbread into slices. Serve with smoky chilli butter.
