Sweet Corn Guacamole Recipes

GUACAMOLE WITH CORN

Steps:

• Mash avocados, lime juice, and salt together in a medium bowl. Mix in tomato, onion, serrano chile, and olive oil. Stir in corn kernels. Serve immediately.

SWEET CORN GUACAMOLE

Steps:

• Place a large pot of water on the stove over high heat and bring to a boil. Peel the husks off the corn and wash. Add corn and boil for three minutes. Remove from water and cool.
• With a sharp knife, carefully cut the kernels from the cob.
• 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.
• Taste and add additional salt if desired. Serve with chips, fresh veggies, or ridiculously (yet awesomely) spicy vegan chipotle sausage.

ROASTED CORN GUACAMOLE

Steps:

• Combine the avocados, corn, onion, cilantro, lime juice, and creme fraiche in a bowl and mix well. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve with tortilla chips.

GUACAMOLE WITH GRILLED CORN

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.)

CORN AND BLACK BEAN GUACAMOLE

Steps:

• Stir red bell pepper, red onion, garlic, sweet corn, black beans, and avocado slices together in a large bowl.
• Mix lime juice, salt, black pepper, and cilantro into avocado mixture until desired texture is achieved.
