Mexican Corn Salad is a wonderful fresh corn salad made for summer BBQs and Mexican feasts!

Its a giant salad form ofEsquites,a corn street snack sold in cups on the streets of Mexico.

Its outrageously and insanely good!

Something a little different to the usual steamed-butter-slathered corn on the cob (and there isnothingwrong with that!!

), its bright and colourful, and its a brilliant dish for sharing.

Youll find many versions use a lot more mayonnaise than I do.

This way we get the best of both worlds lots of dressing but not overly rich!

I use this for most of my mayo-based dressings, such as Coleslaw, Macaroni Salad, Broccoli Salad.

Just place an inverted ramekin in a large bowl OR use a bundt pan.

Ingredients in Mexican Corn Salad

Stand the corn cob on the ramekin then use a knife to cut the kernels off.

The walls of the bowl / bundt pan will stop the kernels flying all over your counter!

It gets even better!

Just find any excuse to make it!
