JUMP TO RECIPE

Is it a salad? A salsa?  I’m not sure, but it goes beautifully with pulled pork, fish tacos, or as a topping for arepas (a delicious South American savoury corn meal street food).  This simple side is full of flavour, crunch, fibre, prebiotics and antioxidants, which I’m pretty sure makes it a certified gut health super salad. 

You can make it with frozen corn kernels, but the crunchiness and smoky flavour of charred fresh corn is well worth the bother.  Both my kids dislike capsicum, but they go crazy for this colourful bowl of goodness.  Go figure!
