Scale

The ingredients list isn’t that big, so that’s another big positive. You can easily follow my recipe if you have these common ingredients with you:

  • 1 cup of tomatoes. chopped
  • 1/2 cups of onions, chopped
  • 1 cup of corn, boiled
  • Salt, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon of lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup of coriander leaves

Yup, that’s all there is! You don’t need anything else to follow this recipe. But, that doesn’t mean adding anything extra isn’t allowed. Feel free to add more ingredients, seasonings, or sauces on top as long as you think the mixture will turn out delicious!

Instructions

Just like ingredients, there aren’t many steps in this recipe either. You only need to do a few things to enjoy delicious corn salad at home, which are:

  1. Mix the Veggies: Start by chopping tomatoes to fill 1 cup, and onions to fill ½ cups. Then, dump both of these veggies into a plate and mix them together.mix veggies for salad
  2. Add Boiled Corn: Put on 1 cup of corn to boil after you’re done mixing the vegetables. Once they’re boiled, pour the corn on top of the tomatoes and onions that you mixed. Stir these again so that everything is mixed instead of being layered on top of each other.adding boiled corn
  3. Add Salt: Sprinkle salt on top of the ingredients you just mixed to bring out their flavor, while giving them a nice sour taste at the same time. You can add as much salt as you would like depending on your preference. I usually stick to just 1 tablespoon, but you can make it more or less. Make sure to mix everything again after adding the salt so it gets everywhere.adding salt for salad
  4. Dump Lemon Juice On Top: A nice, zesty lemon flavor can make any salad delicious, which is why the next step is to add a teaspoon of lemon juice all over these ingredients. Make sure to dump it all across instead of one spot, so it spreads instead of staying on one part of the mixture. Mix once again to help with the spread and flavor.adding lemon juice for pasta
  5. Add Coriander Leaves and Serve!: For one last step, and an extra bit of minty flavor, add ¼ cups of coriander leaves in the mixture. Stir everything one final time so it’s spread out equally, and your delicious corn salad will be ready! You can now serve it to your guests or enjoy a plate by yourself!serve salad

Notes

  • The recipe is really simple and uses few ingredients, but that doesn’t mean you can’t experiment with it. I find myself adding some new things here and there when I feel like experimenting. For example, I might make things a little spicier by putting hot sauce on top.
  • If you’re serving it at a BBQ, you could try adding BBQ sauce on top, as that’ll go with the theme and give the salad a nice flavor at the same time. It’s possible to use all kinds of different dressings. A couple of personal favorites of mine are honey mustard and thousand islands sauce.
  • To really change things up, you can even add chicken to make it a chicken corn salad, or other veggies to give it extra flavor. Lastly, you can just stick to the recipe as it is. Either way, it’ll turn out delicious and I’m sure you’ll enjoy it!
