Mexican Street Corn Avocado Toast

May 30, 2019 by Helena Leave a Comment

I took inspiration of the classic Elote in making this Mexican Avocado Toast.

I mean, what’s not love about Mexican Street corn?

It’s crisp, creamy, cheesy, and that lightly charred flavour of the corn just brings it all together. The traditional way to cook it is coated in a mixture of mayo, cotija, chili, garlic and cilantro. Its then grilled and served with some lime. This toast is a lot easier to eat and you won’t get all the corn stuck in your teeth. But, hey it’s still a little messy, its corn!

I made a lighter version using a little greek yoghurt instead of the mayo. The creamy smashed avocado complements the street corn mixture perfectly. I can’t get cotija cheese here, so I use feta cheese instead. Either one will work well in this recipe.

Mexican Street Corn Avocado Toast

If you are using fresh corn on the cob, which I highly recommend when its in season. You can cook it 2 ways.

Either grill it and then cut it off the cob, or cut the corn off the cob first and the fry it in a frying pan. If using frozen corn cook it on over medium-high heat in a frying pan with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the corn (fresh or frozen) season it lightly with salt and cook, stirring about every 2 minutes, until lightly charred.

Ingredients to make this Mexican avocado toast:

  • 2 large pieces of toast, I used sourdough
  • 1 large avocado
  • 1 fresh corn on the cob, grilled (or 1 Cup frozen corn)
  • small handfull of cilantro, chopped
  • ½ lime, juiced
  • salt, pepper and chili flakes to taste
  • pinch of garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp greek yoghurt
  • 2 tbsp feta cheese, crumbled 
  • pickled red onions to taste

Instructions:

  1. If using fresh corn, remove the husk and grill until slighttly charred. If using frozen corn, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a frying pan and fry the corn for a few minutes until lightly charred.Add the corn to a bowl and let cool. Add the lime juice, yoghurt, cilantro and spices and mix.
  2. Mash to avocado and season with salt and pepper. Spread on the toasted bred and top with the steet corn, crumbled feta and a few springs of cilantro and extra chili fakes if deciered.
  3. Searve imidiately and enjoy!!
