Ingredients

2 Essential Sweetcorn
½ tbsp olive oil, for brushing
½ red onion, finely chopped
1 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 pinch granulated sugar
50g pickled jalapeños, drained and chopped, to taste
2 x 25g packs coriander, leaves only, finely chopped
200g pack Essential Tortilla Chips, to serve
150ml pot Essential Soured Cream, to serve

Method

Preheat the oven to 220°C, gas mark 7. Brush the corn with olive oil, then transfer to a baking tray and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until caramelised and golden brown in places.
Meanwhile, put the onion, vinegar and sugar into a bowl with a pinch of salt, then stir together and allow to pickle for 10 minutes.
Once the corn is cooked, cut away the kernels using a sharp knife and allow to cool. Stir the kernels into the onions with the jalapeños and coriander and season to taste.
Serve with the tortilla chips and soured cream. Spread a little soured cream on the chips with the back of a spoon, then add a spoonful of salsa.

Cook’s tip

To make easy canapés, preload the tortilla chips with the soured cream and salsa, then grate over a little parmesan or crumble over some feta to finish.

The salsa can be made up to 12 hours ahead – cover and chill, then bring back to room temperature for 30 minutes before serving.
