RED CORN RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Remove the corn from the husks. In a large, deep bowl, slice off the kernels of corn with a sharp knife. Turn the knife to the dull side and scrape the cob all the way down to remove all the bits of kernel and creamy milk inside. (I do this inside the bowl because it goes everywhere if you cut it on a board.)
• Add the red bell peppers, jalapenos, heavy cream, milk, salt to taste, a generous amount of pepper and butter and mix it well. Pour into a 9 by 13-inch baking dish. Bake until thoroughly warmed through, 30 to 45 minutes.

Steps:

• 1. Place a griddle pan on a medium-high heat to warm up. 2. Once hot, carefully add the corn and cook for around 15 minutes, or until hot through and lightly golden all over, turning with tongs regularly for even cooking. 3. Remove to a chopping board and leave to cool slightly. 4. Hold the charred corn steady on the board using a tea towel to protect your hand, then carefully run a knife down the sides to cut off the kernels, then put the kernels in a mixing bowl. 5. Pick and roughly chop the coriander leaves, discarding the stalks, then add them to the bowl. 6. Cut the chilli in half lengthways. 7. Hold the stalk end of each half steady, then run a teaspoon down the cut sides to scoop out the seeds and white pith. 8. Finely slice half the chilli, place in the bowl (save the rest for another recipe), then wash your hands thoroughly. 9. Trim and finely slice the spring onions, then add to the bowl. 10. Chop up the tomatoes and add them to the bowl with a tiny pinch of salt. 11. Cut the limes in half. 12. Squeeze all the juice into the bowl, drizzle over the extra virgin olive oil and mix well, then serve.
