How to Make It

01
Char the corn

Grill directly on gas flame or griddle until charred on all sides. Cool slightly then cut kernels off. The char is flavour — do not fear it.

02
Dice avocado last

Cube avocado and toss immediately in lime juice. Add to salad at the very last moment to preserve colour and texture.

03
Make honey lime dressing

Whisk lime juice, honey, olive oil, pinch of salt and cayenne. Should be sweet, bright, and slightly hot.

04
Toss and pile high

Combine corn, tomatoes, onion, and basil. Fold in avocado gently. Dress and taste. Season. Pile into a serving bowl.
