The new “game changer” snack that is taking the foodie world by storm is the ultimate corn ribs made in an air fryer. And stylist mum-of-two Jules has taken up the challenge to try out the new recipe, which is currently going viral on TikTok.WATCH BELOW: Jules Sebastian shows how to make corn ribs with an air fryer
In a video shared to Instagram, Jules took viewers along with her as she created the corn ribs, which are like “ribs but made of corn”, as she described.
Using a handful of ingredients, including corn (of course), spices, yogurt, and the hero of it all, an air fryer, Jules whipped up the viral snack in just 10 minutes.
“These are so so good! Best eaten fresh and literally cooked in ten mins,” she penned.
“We can thank ‘The Tik Tok’ for another fabulous recipe.”

You then flip them around at about the half way point, or as you feel necessary.The air fryer she used is 5.3 Litre Air Fryer from Kmart, which is priced at $89. However, any standard one will do just fine.While you wait for them to fry, you can do as Jules did and create your topping by popping in a good amount of yogurt into a bowl, add salt and pepper and a squeeze of lime.Whizz it around until it’s all mixed together and then drizzle it over the corn ribs. Then add coriander on top to finish!“That’s how easy it is,” she said.Find the full recipe below:Looks so easy! (Credit: Instagram)
