How to make Grilled Street Corn Salad with Coriander Butter Prawns, Pico de Gallo and Avocado Purée

Prepare the grill (medium-high heat). Grill the corn on the grill rack, covered, turning occasionally, until lightly charred in spots, about 10 minutes. Using tongs, transfer the corn to a platter and let it cool, then cut the kernels from the cob. In a bowl toss the corn with the remaining corn salad ingredients. Season the salad with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Toss together all the pico de gallo ingredients and season the salsa with salt and additional fresh lemon and lime juice, if necessary.

Scoop the avocado flesh into a blender and add the mango and lime and lemon juices. Blend the mixture until it is smooth, then, thin the purée, if necessary. with water. Season the purée with salt.

In a medium skillet over moderately high heat, melt the butter, then stir in the coriander. Add the prawns and sauté, turning them occasionally, until they turn pink and are just cooked through, about 4 to 6 minutes. Season the prawns with salt.

Divide the corn salad among 4 plates, spooning it onto the centre of each plate, and top each serving with a prawn. Spoon the pico de gallo over the prawn and drizzle it with the avocado purée.
