Thai Corn Black Bean Salad Recipe
Yield: 4 ServingsRecipe by luhu.jp
Ingredients:
2 cup: Corn kernels, cooked
2 cup: Black beans, cooked
1/2 cup: Celery, sliced
1/2 cup: Red onion, diced
1/2 cup: Red bell pepper, diced
1/4 cup: Cilantro, chopped
2 each: Jalapeno chiles, seeded &, minced
2 each: Garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp: Ginger, minced
3 tbsp: Sesame oil,
2 tbsp: Rice vinegar,
1 tbsp: Lime juice,
Salt, to taste
Directions:
In a large bowl, combine corn, beans, celery, onion, pepper, cilantro,
chiles, garlic & ginger. Set aside.
In another bowl, whisk together oil, vinegar & lime juice. Pour over
the ingredients in the large bowl & mix well. Season with salt &
chill until ready to serve.
MARKS NOTE: I am not sure what makes this "Thai", however the taste
is not bad. I especially like using black beans in contrast with
other bright colours. I used galangal in place of ginger in this
recipe plus a pinch of lemongrass. I replaced the red onion with a
couple of large green onions, chopped.
Next time, Ill use red chiles rather than jalapeno chiles.
Jalapenoes, especially when seeded, do not have much taste. A couple
of red chiles, finely minced should go a long way towards perking up
an otherwise promising dish. Oh yes, do increase the lime juice. I
used as much juice as I could squeeze out of half a large lime & it
could have still used more, so 1 tb is not nearly enough. Try
garnishing with kaffir lime leaves as well.
