Smoky Corn Salsa

This smoky corn salsa is a vibrant, vegan addition to any summer spread, offering a perfect balance of charred sweetness and zesty heat. By grilling the fresh corn, red peppers and spring onions until lightly blackened, you develop a deep, caramelised flavour that pairs beautifully with the earthy notes of ground cumin and spicy chipotle sauce. It is a texture-rich dish that brings a burst of colour to the table.

Serving as a versatile side dish or a topping for tacos, this gluten-free recipe is remarkably easy to prepare on a barbecue or a hot griddle pan. The addition of fresh lime juice and a generous handful of coriander provides a bright finish, making it a healthy, flavour-forward choice for outdoor dining and casual get-togethers.

Ingredients for Smoky Corn Salsa

  • 2 red peppers, quartered, seeded

  • 3 ears of fresh corn, husked

  • 1 bunch spring onions, trimmed

  • 4 tablespoons (about) olive oil, divided

  • 2 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

  • 1 tablespoon bottled chipotle hot sauce

How to make Smoky Corn Salsa

Prepare barbecue (high heat). Brush peppers, corn, and spring onions with some olive oil. Grill vegetables until well charred in spots, turning occasionally with tongs and removing pieces as they brown, 5 minutes for spring onions, 10 to 15 minutes for peppers and corn. Cool slightly. Cut peppers and spring onions into 1/3-inch pieces. Cut corn off cob.

Heat 2 tablespoons oil in heavy small skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and cumin; sauté until garlic begins to sizzle but does not brown, about 30 seconds. Pour into large bowl; mix in lime juice and hot sauce. Mix in vegetables. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cool completely; mix in coriander.
