Method

  1. Prepare quinoa as instructed on the packet (optional).
  2. Mix garlic and oil with a pinch of salt in a bowl and set aside.
  3. Using a grill on medium to high heat, cook the corn cobs until charred (approximately 5 minutes). Brush the cobs with the garlic and oil mix in between to help the char process.
  4. When cooled, transfer the corn cobs to a chopping board and carefully slice the corn off the cob.
  5. If using quinoa put into a wide bowl and add the red onion, chilli, avocado and tomatoes.
  6. Stir through the corn, coriander and squeeze over the lemon or lime juice.
