Loved this. Used parmesan instead of cotija and added fresh tomatoes for a finish.

So easy to make and yet so delicious! I couldn't find cotija so I used feta instead. Same thing with the chili powder so I just used Spice Islands Chili powder. Also, I added an entire ripe, diced mango to make it a little more tropical/summer infused. Family loved the finished product, co-workers loved the leftovers!

Everybody who has sampled this salad has loved it. We've made it at least 4 times for different parties and it's always a hit.

I was not expecting much given the ingredients here - it sounded too simple a recipe to have much flavour. But I totally loved it and so did everyone at the barbeque I brought it to.

As someone suggested earlier, I grilled the corn in the oven at 450 degrees for about 30 mins, turning over once. Also substituted sour cream for cream fraiche. For chilli powder, I found the ancho chilli powder quite tame so I mixed in some cayenne and chipotle seasoning. Didn't stick to the quantities in the recipe, I just cooked the salad with about half the amount of seasoning and then added more till I was happy with the taste.

Great recipe, will definitely make it again.

This dish could be served warm, room temperature or cold. The lime juice is a little tart and citrusy, the chili powder is a little warm and spicy, and the corn is sweet. I used sour cream and Queso Fresco. Very good summer salad.

I made this one, and as others, substituted creme fraiche with sour cream. Additionally, since I didn't have the Mexican cheese, I added grated Monterrey Jack. Also I added one chopped red pepper, one ripe haas avocado cut into 1/4 inch cubes and added 1/2 fresh jalepeno pepper very very finely chopped. It was awesome!

I prepared this for the first time and followed the recipe exactly. I liked it, but my two non-picky guests did not care for it. It seemed as though the lime and the cheese were two very strong flavors in competition. I will make again and reduce the lime (but, I love lime!.

i halved the recipe and could eat the entire bowl in one sitting! i added a chopped grilled poblano pepper and used mexican crema instead of creme fraiche. it's the perfect side salad for a mexican fiesta!
