Part of our Things on Toast series, this corn toast aka Esquites on toast is truly sublime. If you find half a can of corn lurking around and you don't know what to use it for, try this!! It's creamy, zingy, fresh and so flavourful, with minimal ingredients.

Method

  • Heat a large frying pan over a medium high heat with a splash of oil. Once hot, tip in the corn and fry for around 5 mins until nicely charred on all sides. Remove and allow the corn to cool for a minute or so.
  • Combine the rest of the ingredients in a bowl, along with the slightly cooled corn, and season to taste. Load onto some toasted sourdough and garnish with coriander, hot sauce and an extra squeeze of lime if desired! Enjoy.
