Categories     side-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ear corn, shucked
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for rubbing the corn
1 cup quartered cherry tomatoes
2 ripe but firm avocadoes, pitted and diced
One 15.5-ounce can black beans, drained
1/2 medium red onion, diced

Yield Makes 2 to 3 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ripe avocado, cut into 1/4-inch dice
2 to 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 ripe red tomato, seeded and cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 ear sweet corn, shucked
1 scallion, both white and green parts, trimmed and finely chopped, or 3 tablespoons diced sweet onion
1 to 2 jalapeño peppers or serrano peppers, seeded and minced (for a hotter salsa, leave the seeds in)
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Coarse salt (kosher or sea) and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Place the avocado in the bottom of a nonreactive mixing bowl and gently toss it with 2 tablespoons of the lime juice. Spoon the tomato on top of the avocado.
  • 2. Cut the kernels off the corn. The easiest way to do this is to lay the cob flat on a cutting board and remove the kernels using lengthwise strokes of a chef's knife. Add the corn kernels to the mixing bowl. The salsa can be prepared to this stage up to 2 hours ahead. Refrigerate it, covered.
  • 3. Just before serving, add the jalapeño(s) and cilantro to the mixing bowl and gently toss to mix. Taste for seasoning, adding more lime juice as necessary and season with salt and pepper to taste; the salsa should be highly seasoned.

Categories     Garlic     Pepper     Steam     Cheddar     Avocado     Corn     Tomatillo     Cilantro     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes 18 tamales

Number Of Ingredients 20

Tomatillo-Avocado Salsa
12 tomatillo, husked, rinsed well
1 small onion, quartered
6 large garlic cloves, peeled
2 to 3 serrano chilies, stemmed
2 ripe avocados, peeled, diced
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
Tamales
1 6-ounce package dried corn husks
1 pound large poblano chilies
2 cups Masa Harina (corn tortilla mix)
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
3 tablespoons sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup canned low-salt chicken broth
5 cups frozen baby white corn kernels (about 25 ounces), thawed
3 cups (packed) coarsely grated sharp cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Make Salsa:
  • Cook first 4 ingredients in heavy large skillet over high heat until charred in spots but still firm, turning occasionally, about 5 minutes. Transfer to processor; using on/off turns, chop coarsely. Add all remaining ingredients. Blend to coarse puree. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill.)
  • Make Tamales:
  • Selecting the largest and cleanest husks, place half of husks in large bowl; fill bowl with warm water. Weigh husks down with plate; soak husks until soft, separating occasionally, about 2 hours. Form 36 ties by tearing several husks into 1/2-inch-wide strips.
  • Char chilies directly over gas flame or under broiler until blackened on all sides. Place in medium bowl; cover tightly with plastic. Let stand 10 minutes. Peel, seed, and chop chilies.
  • To make dough, blend Masa Harina, butter, sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt in processor until coarse meal forms. Add broth and blend in (mixture will be crumbly). Transfer masa mixture to large bowl. Blend 2 1/2 cups corn, 1 cup cheese, baking powder, pepper, and 1 1/4 teaspoons salt in processor until coarse puree forms. Stir puree, then 2 1/2 cups corn into masa.
  • For each tamale, open 1 large softened husk. Place 1/3 cup tamale dough in center of husk. Make depression in center of dough; fill with 1 tablespoon chilies, then 1 tablespoon cheese. Using moistened fingertips, press dough over filling to cover; shape filled dough into 3-inch-long log parallel to 1 long edge of husk. Fold 1 long side of husk over filling and roll up to enclose. Tie ends of filled husks tightly with husk strips.
  • Add enough water to large pot containing steamer insert to reach bottom of insert. Layer tamales in steamer insert. Bring water to boil; cover pot. Steam until tamales are firm, removing insert and adding boiling water to pot to maintain water level as needed, about 1 hour. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cool slightly. Refrigerate. Before serving, re-steam 45 minutes to heat through.) Serve tamales in husks with salsa.

CORN CAKES WITH AVOCADO CILANTRO SALSA RECIPE



Corn Cakes with Avocado Cilantro Salsa Recipe image

Provided by HeatherS

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup (125 mL) of coarse stone-ground cornmeal
1/2 cup (125 mL) of whole wheat flour
1/2 teaspoon (2 mL) of baking powder
1/2 teaspoon (2 mL) of salt
1/4 teaspoon (1 mL) of freshly ground pepper
2 eggs
1/2 cup (125 mL) of milk
1/4 cup (60 mL) of melted butter
Thr kernels from 2 ears of corn (about 2 cups/500 mL)
A splash or two of cooking oil
FOR THE SALSA
1 ripe avocado, halved and pitted
1/4 cup (60 mL) of your favourite salsa
1 brunch of tender cilantro sprigs, chopped

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper, evenly distributing the finer powders among the coarser ones. In a small bowl, thoroughly whisk together the eggs, milk, and butter. Pour the wet mixture into the dry one and stir together until smooth. Stir in the corn. Cover and refrigerate to rest the batter for 30 minutes or so. Meawhile, to make the salsa, spoon the avocado into a small bowl. Toss in the salsa and with the back of a fork mash it into the avocado. Stir in the cilantro. When the batter has rested, preheat your favourite large heavy frying pan over medium heat. Pour in a splah or two of cooking oil, enough to cover the bottom of the pan with a thin film. When it's hot, spoon a large dollop of the batter into the sizzling oil. Add another spoonful near the first, leaving room for expaision. Continue with the remaining batter until the pan is full. Cook, flipping once, until the cakes are golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Top each cake with a dollop of avocado salsa. Tip: coarse cornmeal retains more nutrition and flovour than finer grinds. But because of its coarseness, it needs time to hydrate, to absorb moisture from the batter and soften-hence the 30 minutes resting time. If your pan is not big enough to cook them all at once, you can keep them warm in the oven for 20 minutes or so set the oven at 250F.

Number Of Ingredients 31

1 lb salmon, pin bones and skin removed, patted dry
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons flour
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or to taste)
1/2 teaspoon salt (I increased to about 1 teaspoon)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 ripe avocado, finely chopped
1 large ear of corn, kernels cut off
1 tomatoes, seeds removed and diced
1/4 cup red onion, diced
2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
zest and juice of half a lime
salt and pepper
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons buttermilk
juice of half a lime
1 small garlic clove
2 tablespoons green onions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup cilantro leaf
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
corn tortilla, warmed
shredded cabbage
lime wedge

Steps:

  • For the Salmon: Heat the oil in a skillet (cast iron is good) over medium-high heat. In a bowl, stir together the flour, chili powder, paprika, brown sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, cumin, cayenne, salt and pepper. Coat the flesh of the salmon liberally with the blackening spice.
  • Place salmon in hot skillet. Cook 3-4 minutes per side or until coating is blackened and forms a nice crust and salmon is cooked through (medium-well, just slightly pink in the center). Allow salmon to rest for 5 minutes, then flake with a fork.
  • For the Salsa: In a bowl, gently stir together the avocado, corn, tomato, red onion, cilantro, lime, salt and pepper. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Note: Can be made up to an hour in advance.
  • For the Dressing: Add yogurt, mayo, buttermilk, lime, garlic, green onions, cilantro, salt and pepper to a food processor. Process until smooth. Add more buttermilk as needed until desired consistency is reached (you'll want it to be thin enough to drizzle, but not so thin that it slides off the tacos). Refrigerate until ready to serve. Note: Can be made up to several hours in advance.
  • To Assemble Tacos: On a warmed corn tortilla place flaked salmon followed by Avocado Corn Salsa and some shredded cabbage. Drizzle with Cilantro Ranch Dressing. Serve with lime wedges.

Tips for Making Avocado Corn Salsa:

- Choose ripe avocados: Ripe avocados will be dark green or black in color and will yield to gentle pressure when squeezed. Avoid avocados that are too hard or have brown spots. - Use fresh corn: Fresh corn on the cob is best for this salsa, but you can also use frozen or canned corn in a pinch. If using frozen corn, thaw it completely before using. - Dice the vegetables evenly: This will help to ensure that the salsa has a consistent texture. - Use a sharp knife: A sharp knife will make it easier to dice the vegetables and prevent them from becoming bruised. - Add some spice: If you like spicy salsa, add a jalapeño pepper or some chili powder. - Serve immediately: Avocado salsa is best served fresh. If you need to make it ahead of time, store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.

Conclusion:
