Fresh corn on the cob is an essential part of any barbecue menu. We like it straight up, but love the super sweet kernels even more in this zingy chilli and lime salad
Ingredients
Corn on the cob, boiled
4 medium
Calorie controlled cooking spray
4 spray(s)
Red onion
1 small
Red pepper
2 medium
Cucumber
1 individual, extra large
Chilli, green or red
1 individual
Lime Juice, Fresh
50 ml
Lime
1 medium
Coriander, fresh
1 tablespoon(s)
Instructions
1
Bring a large pan of water to the boil and parboil the sweetcorn for 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
2
Spray the sweetcorn with cooking spray and grill on the barbecue for 5-7 minutes, or until nicely charred. Alternatively, cook on a griddle pan on the hob. Leave to cook and then using a knife, gently remove the kernels from the corn. Combine the kernels in a large bowl with the onion, peppers, cucumber and chilli.

Just before serving, stir in the lime zest and juice and scatter over the chopped coriander.
