INGREDIENTS:
  • 3 corn cobs, dehusked and cut in half
  • 3 medium tomatoes, diced
  • 2 spring onions, thinly sliced
  • 1/2 cup fresh parsley, roughly chopped
  • 100g reduced fat feta cheese, crumbled
  • 3/4 cup reduced fat Greek yoghurt
  • 1 lime, juiced and zested
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
METHOD:
  • Place the corn cobs in a large saucepan over high heat. Bring to the boil and cook for 3-5 minutes or until tender. Remove from pan and drain.
  • Place the corn on a large chopping board and using a sharp knife, cut the corn kernels off, place in a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the tomatoes, spring onion, parsley and fetta to the bowl. Mix to combine.
  • In a small bowl or jug, whisk together the Greek yoghurt, lime juice, zest and paprika to form the dressing.
  • Pour the dressing over the corn salad and toss to coat. Divide between four bowls or containers to serve.
RECIPE NOTES:
  1. Dehusking, also known as shucking, means removing the leave and silky strings from the cob of corn.
  2. Instead of boiling the corn, the cobs can also be cooked in a steamer or in the microwave.
  3. Feel free to substitute the fresh corn for canned (no added salt) or frozen corn.
  4. Feel free to add in some shredded cooked skinless chicken breast, canned tuna or salmon to the salad cups.
  5. Leftover salad can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days.
