This simple recipe is quick to prepare and full of flavor, adding a splash of color and nutrients to your plate. Plus, it's a great way to take advantage of sweet corn, which is not only tasty but also packed with health benefits. Preparation time: 15 minutes Total time: 15 minutes Servings: 4 Necessary ingredients: - 200 g corn kernels (either fresh or canned) - 1 medium fresh green lettuce - 2 medium onions - 1 tablespoon lemon juice - 3 tablespoons olive oil or sunflower oil - Salt, to taste - 1-2 tablespoons mustard (optional, for a stronger flavor) Step-by-step preparation: 1. Start by washing the green lettuce under a stream of cold water. Make sure to remove any impurities or insects. Tear the lettuce into small pieces so it can be easily mixed with the other ingredients. 2. If using fresh corn, peel 1-2 ears and boil the kernels in salted water for about 5-7 minutes. If you choose canned corn, drain it well and rinse it under cold water to remove excess sodium. 3. In a large bowl, combine the corn kernels, torn lettuce, finely chopped onion (you can use red onion for a sweeter taste or green onion for a fresh note), and chopped dill. Dill adds an unmistakable aroma, but you can omit this ingredient if you don't like it. 4. In a small bowl, prepare the dressing. Mix the olive oil or sunflower oil with lemon juice and mustard, if you choose to use it. Add salt to taste and mix well until the ingredients are well emulsified. 5. Pour the dressing over the salad and gently mix so that all ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing. Be careful not to crush the lettuce in the process! 6. Let the salad sit for 5 minutes before serving. This step allows the flavors to combine and the salad to become even more flavorful. Serving suggestions: This fresh corn salad with green lettuce can be served as is or as a side dish alongside your favorite barbecue. You can also add cubes of feta or mozzarella cheese for extra creaminess, or even some nuts for a crunchy contrast. Possible variations: If you want to experiment, you can add halved cherry tomatoes or diced avocado to enrich the salad. Also, a teaspoon of honey in the dressing can add a touch of sweetness, balancing the acidity of the lemon. This corn salad with green lettuce is not only a simple recipe but also a true culinary delight. Enjoy every bite and savor the freshness of the ingredients!
