Posted by Ekone on Sep 12th 2024
This zesty corn and cabbage slaw is a perfect dish to bring along for a late summer feast. It gets better as it sits, and comes together quickly - allowing you to focus your energy on soaking up the last sunny moments of the season.
Ingredients:
- 3 heaping cups thinly sliced cabbage
- Fine sea salt to season
- 2 tablespoons lime juice, from 1-2 limes
- 2 teaspoons lime zest
- 1 large ear of corn
- 1 tin Ekone Original Smoked Oysters
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon finely minced jalapeño, seeds removed if you want less heat
- A handful of cilantro, roughly chopped
Instructions:
- Add the cabbage and a generous pinch of salt to a medium mixing bowl.
- Assertively massage the cabbage, until its structure has notably relaxed.
- Add the lime juice and zest, mix to combine, and set aside to marinate while you char the corn.
- Heat a large cast iron pan over medium-high heat.
- Cut the corn off of the cob, and add the kernels to the hot cast iron in a single layer. Cook the corn, undisturbed, until it begins to char. Season with a pinch of salt, and remove from the heat.
- Add the charred corn, smoked oysters, olive oil, jalapeño, and cilantro to the marinating cabbage. Toss to combine, then taste for seasoning. Adjust with another pinch of salt if necessary.
