Method

  • step 1

    Cut lengthwise across the avocado and around the stone, then twist and separate the two halves. Scoop out the stone. Use a sharp knife to make diagonal cuts along one half. Then make cuts the other way so you end up with a criss-cross effect. Run a large spoon around the skin, releasing the avocado chunks. Do the same with the other half.

  • step 2

    Heat grill to high. Mix the avocado with the sweetcorn, tomatoes (adding their juice as well), onion and chopped coriander. Arrange some tortilla chips on a baking sheet. Spoon a little of the salsa onto each chip, then sprinkle all over with cheese. Pop under the grill and cook for 3-5 mins until the cheese is bubbling and melted. Eat straight away.

RECIPE TIPS
KNOW-HOW

Canned veg are really convenient, but you can also make this salsa with fresh vegetables. Chop up 6 medium tomatoes, then cook 2 corn cobs in boiling water for a couple of mins until the kernels turn bright yellow and become soft. Take out of the water and leave to cool. Use a knife to slice off the kernels, then mix with the tomato and continue the recipe as above.

This made a great party nibble. I made it a little tangy by using a bit of lemon juice in the salsa. I also used chilli chips. Easy to make (tho the finished result doesn't look it!!) and really great to eat. Will definitely make it again.

a little too oversimplified for my tastes to be honest, but OK; probably if I was not so developed in veggie food this would be tried again
