directions

  1. Brush the fresh corn cobs with a little olive oil and roast over the BBQ or on the gas flame turning until lightly charred all over. The BBQ adds a delicious smokiness to the corn. Leave the corn until it’s cool enough to handle and then slice off the kernels keeping them in clumps if possible.
  2. Pre-heat the oven to 200°C, 400°F, Gas Mark 6. Lightly spray each of the corn tortillas with oil and dust with a little salt and smoked paprika. Stake the tortillas together before pressing them loosely into a 15cm cake tin to form bowls . Don’t force the tortillas too tightly into the cake tin or you may not get them out. Bake for 6 minutes until the tortilla bowls set and then separate them onto the oven rack. Continue to bake for another 4 minutes until they are crisp.
  3. Make the dressing by mixing the yoghurt, mayonnaise, garlic, FRANK'S RedHot® Original Sauce and lime juice. Season with salt and pepper. Put all the diced vegetables into a large bowl with the corn and red kidney beans. Toss together with ½ of the dressing.
  4. Just before you serve the salad, divide the lettuce and herbs into the 4 tortilla serving bowls. Add the dressed vegetables and sprinkle over the lightly crushed tortilla chips and grated cheese. Drizzle over the remaining dressing and sprinkle on some chilli flakes.
