Method

Pat thawed corn dry so it browns more easily.
Melt butter over medium-high heat and cook corn 8–10 minutes, turning occasionally, until hot and lightly browned.
Take off heat, cool 2 minutes and stir in mayonnaise and lime juice.
Divide into two cups and top with feta, chili powder and coriander.

Tips

Do not add mayonnaise over active heat or it can split.
Feta already adds salt, so taste before adding other salty toppings.
