Ingredients

  • 2 corn on the cob
  • 1 jalapeno
  • 2 hass avocado
  • 1/2 packed cup cilantro minced
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  • Husk the corn and pull away the threads.
  • For stubborn threads, remove with a vegetable brush and then rinse thoroughly.
  • If needed, trim the base of the corn to create a flat area and balance the corn on that area, hold steady with your hand.
  • With a sharp chef's knife slice away the corn kernels - start from the top and cut two thirds into the corn from top to bottom.
  • Place corn in a bowl and set aside.
  • Slice jalapeno in half, lengthways, and with a spoon remove seeds and membrane.
  • Discard seeds and membrane and then mince jalapeno and add to corn in the bowl.
  • Cat avocados in half, lengthways, remove seeds, dice and scoop out into bowl and discard skin.
  • Add cilantro, lime juice and salt, then gently stir with a spoon to mix ingredients.
  • Serve immediately.

Notes

If you want your salsa spicy, do not discard the membranes, mince them up with the jalapenos and add a few seeds.
