Corn Salsa

This fresh corn salsa recipe is the perfect summer appetizer!

Ingredients

 4 cobs Kalfresh Vegetables fresh sweet corn
6  baby capsicums
½ punnet cherry tomatoes
Lime juice
1 small red onion finely diced
½ bunch coriander
Olive oil
Salt and pepper
2 tsp Mexican spices (we love Peri Seasoning from Oaky Creek

 

Method

Place corn cobs in microwave with their husks on and cook on high for 3 minutes. Remove from microwave and discard husks and silks, be careful the cobs will be hot. The husks and silks should come off easily and the kernels should be yellow gold (not light coloured). Holding the corn upright slice off the kernels into a bowl moving around the corn kernel as you go.

Slice the baby capsicums in half lengthways and then slice across in thin strips. Remove seeds where necessary. Cut tomatoes into quarters. Chop coriander roughly (not too fine it needs to have a leafy feel).  Add baby capsicums, tomatoes, red onion and coriander to the corn bowl.

Combine olive oil, lime juice, salt and pepper to taste and chipotle seasoning in a small bowl. Dress the corn salsa and stir to combine well. 

Serve immediately with any main dish or as a dip with corn chips. This salsa can be kept for 2 days covered in the fridge.

Optional: for extra flair and colour, add finger lime pearls (fresh or frozen) for garnish just prior to serving.
