Preparation: 15 minutes | Cooking time: 20 minutes | Serves: 6

Ingredients

  • 2 corn cobs
  • Olive oil spray
  • 1 carrot, julienned
  • 2 avocados, mashed
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 12 tortillas
  • 200g sour cream
  • Red cabbage pickle

To garnish

  • Coriander sprigs
  • Chilli sliced – optional
  • Chilli sauce drizzle – optional

Method

1. Bring a pot of water to the boil. Add corn cobs and simmer for 10 mins. Drain and set aside.

2. Heat the grill pan on high heat. Lightly spray cobs with olive oil and chargrill on all sides. Set aside to cool, then cut corn off the cob. Set aside.

3. Julienne the carrot, cover and set aside. Peel and de-seed avocados then, in a small bowl, mash the avocados with a fork. Add the lime juice and season to taste. Set aside.

4. Lightly toast tortillas on either side in a pan or on a grill plate. Your tacos are ready to assemble. Cool slightly in the trays, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.

5. On top of the warmed tortillas spread a generous spoonful of sour cream. Dollop the avocado, add the pickled cabbage, julienned carrot and grilled corn.

6. Top with a garnish of coriander (for a spicier finish add chilli and a drizzle of chilli sauce.)
