INGREDIENTS:

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• 2 cloves garlic (minced)

• 4 cups corn kernels (cut from ~5-6 ears of fresh corn or frozen corn, defrosted)

• 4 spring onions (white part only, thinly sliced)

• 1 tsp salt

• ½ tsp ground black pepper

• 1/3 cup Best Foods mayonnaise (or other non-sweet egg mayonnaise)

• 1/3 cup plain Greek yogurt (avoid sweet varieties)

• 1 tsp pickled jalapeño (or 1 fresh deseeded jalapeño, finely chopped)

• 1 tsp lime zest

• 1 ½ tbsp lime juice

• ½ tsp Tajín or chili powder (plus a bit more to garnish)

• ½ cup crumbled feta

• ½ cup fresh chopped coriander leaves (washed and patted dry before chopping)

• Favorite hot sauce (like Tapatio or Tabasco) to taste (optional)

• Tortilla Chips or fresh cut veggies for serving

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Cook the Corn:

   • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

   • Add the garlic and cook, stirring for about 30 seconds, until it turns a light golden color.

   • Add the corn, spring onions, salt, and black pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the corn brightens in color, about 3-4 minutes.

2. Cool the Mixture:

   • Once cooked, transfer the corn mixture to a large bowl and set aside to cool for a few minutes (about 3 minutes). This is to prevent the yogurt and cheese from melting when added.

3. Prepare the Dip:

   • Stir in the mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, jalapeño, lime zest, lime juice, Tajín (or chili powder), feta, coriander, and a few shakes of your preferred hot sauce (if using).

   • Taste the dip and adjust with more salt, pepper, hot sauce, or lime juice as needed.

4. Serve:

   • Spoon the dip into a serving bowl. Garnish with a sprinkle of Tajín or chili powder, and some fresh coriander or sliced spring onions.

   • Serve immediately, or refrigerate for at least 30 minutes for the flavors to meld.

Storage:

• Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days in the fridge.

Tips:

• Be sure the avocados are not overly ripe; a firm texture is best, but not fully hard. Hass avocados are ideal.

• This dip pairs perfectly with tortilla chips or fresh-cut veggies like cucumber or carrots.
