Some salads are made for quick lunches, some are for celebrations. This one falls into the latter category. It’s a party favourite as the different elements can be prepared in advance. Then you simply dress it and sprinkle over the tortillas at the last minute.

Method

Brush the corn cobs with the oil, then season them. Heat a ribbed grill pan or frying pan over high heat. Sear the corn and the whole chillies, turning them often using tongs, so they are cooked all the way ‘round and charred in places. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.

To make the dressing, whisk the mayo, vinegar, garlic, onion powder and chives together in a bowl.
