- 3/4 cup Walnuts toasted and coarsely chopped
- Salt and Pepper freshly ground, to taste
DRESSING
- 4 tbsp Honey
- 3/4 cup Dijon Mustard
Instructions
- Put the corn and water (just enough water to cover the corn) in a large pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook the corn until tender.
- Once cooked, take the corn from the pot and when cool enough to handle, shave the kernels from the corncobs.
- Mix the honey and dijon mustard, stir until well combined.
- In a mixing salad bowl, put the blanched green beans, toasted walnuts, corn kernels, cherry tomatoes, sliced red onions and toast with the honey dijon dressing. Season well with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
Notes
- For bright green colour, crisp and tender green beans, avoid overcooking it by immediately putting it on ice water after blanching.
- Toast your nuts in the oven or pan-fry for few minutes to enhance the flavor.
