Spicy Esquites
Spicy Esquites
Esquites is a Mexican street food classic. Charred corn tossed in a creamy, zingy dressing that's completely addictive. We've built ours around our Spicy Taco Seasoning, which brings depth and warmth without overpowering the sweetness of the corn. Finish it with feta, spring onions, a squeeze of lime and a handful of coriander and you've got something that will genuinely upstage whatever's coming off the grill.
Serve it as a topping for your tacos or pile it onto tortilla chips and let people get stuck in. However you serve it...make a big batch. People always want more.
For the Esquites:
- 2 x cups fresh corn kernels (about 4 medium corn on the cob)
- 1 x sachet of Spicy Taco Seasoning (add as much as you need to taste)
For the Creamy Base:
- Juice of one Lime
- 60g Mayo
- 60g Crumbled Feta
- Handful of chopped Spring onion
- Handful of Coriander
Serve with:
- 1 x jar of Jalapeno & Pineapple to garnish
- 1 x bag of Tortilla chips
- Cook corn on the cob on the BBQ until slightly charred.
- Cut the corn from the cob once cooked.
- Mix the corn with the Spicy Taco Seasoning, lime, and your creamy base.
- Top with a handful of feta cheese, coriander and Jalapenos.
- Serve as dip or as a topping for your tacos
