Fresh corn, lightly cooked with black beans and smoked paprika, tossed with lime-pickled red onion, creamy mayonnaise and spring onions. It’s a pretty jazzy salad! Great served as a side dish but also doubles as a brilliant filling in burritos. It also keeps really well in the fridge, unlike most salads, so it’s perfect to make on the weekend and then pull out for all manner of lunches and dinners throughout the week. Head to your local produce market and pick up the freshest ears of corn you can find – the sooner corn is eaten after picking, the sweeter it will be (so if you grow your own you’re in luck). Plant seeds (dried kernels!) in spring.
