Corn & Tomato Salad

Estimated Prep Time: 15 minutes

This is a very colourful summer salad.

If you wish, top with fresh chopped parsley or fresh chopped green onion for even more colour.

For corn you can use:
2 cups of frozen or tinned kernels or kernels from 4 cobs of corn

For salt, try to use a coarse sea salt for the added interest its texture will give, but if regular salt is all you have, use that.

Ingredients

2 cups Corn Kernels (fresh)

2 tablespoons Sugar

4 Tomatoes

1 teaspoon Salt (coarse)

1/2 teaspoon Ground Pepper

3 tablespoons Olive Oil

Directions

Bring a medium saucepan of water to the boil. Add corn and sugar, reduce heat and let simmer for just one minute. Drain corn till dry; pat with paper towel if you wish.

While corn is draining and drying, slice tomatoes and arrange on a serving plate. Arrange corn on top. Sprinkle with salt and paper, and drizzle the olive oil over it all.

Serve room temperature. If you are taking this salad somewhere, bring the prepared ingredients in two separate containers and assemble when there.
