- Place corn in a medium bowl and add the rest of the ingredients. Stir with a fork until slightly creamy but pieces of avocado are still in tact.

GUACAMOLE WITH GRILLED CORN
This simple summer dip combines guacamole with sweet grilled corn and tangy Cotija cheese. The key to great guacamole is to pound the aromatics in a mortar and pestle or molcajete with salt, producing a guacamole with deep flavor from minimal ingredients.

Steps:
- Prepare a coal or gas grill so it's at high heat. Add the corn and cook, turning occasionally, until the kernels are lightly blackened in spots all over, 5 to 15 minutes. When corn is cool enough to handle, hold one ear upright in a large bowl and, using a sharp knife, cut off the kernels. Discard the cob, then repeat with the other ear. Let cool completely before adding to the finished guacamole.
- Meanwhile, in a large granite mortar and pestle or molcajete (see Tip), combine the onion, chile, cilantro and salt. Pound into a rough paste, 2 to 4 minutes. Transfer the paste to a large bowl.
- Add the flesh of the avocados and the lime juice. Crush the avocados into a chunky dip using the pestle or the back of a large spoon. Once corn kernels are completely cooled, add them and the Cotija to the large bowl, reserving a little of each for garnish. Fold together the guacamole, corn and cheese, and season to taste with more salt and lime juice. Sprinkle with remaining cilantro, Cotija and corn. Serve immediately with tortilla chips. (Try to eat in one sitting. Leftover guacamole stored in the fridge turns brown quickly.)

Tips:
- Choose ripe avocados: For the creamiest guacamole, use ripe avocados that yield to gentle pressure when squeezed.
- Season to taste: Guacamole is a versatile dish that can be seasoned to your liking. Add more lime juice, cilantro, or jalapeño for a brighter, spicier flavor.
- Use fresh corn: Fresh corn is the star of this recipe. If you don't have access to fresh corn, you can use frozen or canned corn, but the flavor won't be as good.
- Don't over-mash the avocados: Guacamole should have a chunky texture, so be careful not to over-mash the avocados. Leave some small chunks for added texture.
- Serve immediately: Guacamole is best served immediately after making. If you need to make it ahead of time, store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 hours. Before serving, bring it to room temperature for about 30 minutes.
Conclusion:
Sweet corn guacamole is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. It's perfect for summer gatherings or potlucks. With its vibrant colors and flavors, this guacamole is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a tasty and healthy snack, give this recipe a try!
