(makes 4 tacos)
Ingredients
For the Corn
2 sweetcorn cobs
olive oil
chili flakes
pinch of malden sea salt
For the Mayonnaise
3 tbsp of plant mayonnaise or normal
2 tbsp of sriracha
1 tbsp of plant yogurt
a squeeze of lemon juice
pinch of cayenne pepper
Filling
2-4 soft tortillas
1 ripe avocado, sliced
2 baby gem lettuce
30 grams fresh coriander
Quick pickled red onion
1 red onion sliced thinly
1 tbs of sugar
3 tbs of apple cider vinegar
Method
-
For the quick pickled onions, marinate the onion slices in sugar and apple cider vinegar. Don't be afraid of the sugar here as you are just marinating them quickly. Once done set aside.
-
For the mayonnaise, simply mix all of the mayonnaise ingredients and set aside until assembly.
-
Cover the corn in olive oil, sprinkle on salt and chilli flakes and put on the barbecue until nicely charred. Once done set aside.
-
Put your tortillas in the oven on the grill mode until nice and hot. Once they are warm add baby gem, sliced avocado, and the charred corn. I find that the best way to get the corn off the cobs is to slice the corn from the sides by holding the cob tightly and slicing downwards. Add those big corn chunks to your tortillas and dollop over mayonnaise and pickled red onion and some fresh cilantro. This is a super quick and easy meal but so satisfying on all levels.
