Ingredients

  • 4 ears fresh corn, unshucked
  • 1 large jicama, peeled and thinly julienned
  • 1 ripe mango, peeled and chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves
  • Citrus vinaigrette, recipe follows

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Put the ears of corn on a baking sheet and place in the oven for 45 minutes. Remove and let cool. When the corn has cooled, shuck it and stand it on end. Using a sharp knife, run the blade down the cob to cut the kernels off. Rotate the cob and repeat until all the kernels have been cut off.

Combine the jicama, mango, red onion and cilantro in a large mixing bowl. Add the cooled corn, and toss with the vinaigrette. Chill until ready to serve.

Citrus Vinaigrette:

2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

2 tablespoons fresh orange juice

1 teaspoon freshly grated orange zest

2 teaspoons sugar

Dash hot sauce

1 cup olive oil

Salt pepper

2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves

In a large bowl combine the lime juice, orange juice, orange zest, sugar and hot sauce. Whisk together and slowly add the olive oil, whisking as you go. Add salt and pepper, to taste, and cilantro and whisk until combined.

Yield: 1 1/4 cups

    Wow! This is so unique. If you are like me, you may have trouble chunking mangos. Mine frequently turn out as tiny little mushy "chunks." No Problem! The salad is very forgiving. The jicama provides crunch, the corn consistency, the mango flavor. It's all good, actually great!

    I use about half of the oil and add white balsamic vinegar. My family and friends absolutely love it.

    With local white corn in season, made this for a family party. It was a big hit. Great side dish/salad - refreshing, light, great flavor and texture combination. Used a serrated knife to take the corn off the cob; came off in whole kernals with no moisture/liquid (because of the roasting. Added lemon (in addition to the orange juice after reading other reviews
